  • “My daughter loves attending Svenja’s ballet class and the magical journey she takes her on each week. She has really grown in confidence week by week 😊”

    • Ballet mum

  • “My daughter loves that the classes are structured but fun, social and have a very child focussed instructor!”

    • Ballet dad

  • “We've been to a few dance classes and I've got to say yours is my favourite. You are so great with the kids, there is a lovely community atmosphere amongst the parents and the activities are really fun.”

    • Ballet dad

  • My child probably most enjoys the music, then all the wonderful props and freedom to use the space as she wishes. And I am very pleased with the nonjudgmental nature of the classes, where children are free to dance in their own way (not often found in ballet!). And Svenja is so wonderfully engaging and kind to the children.

AND FINALLY…

LOOKING FOR A PAIR OF BALLET SHOES? WE’VE GOT YOU SORTED!

Wearing a ballet uniform is not mandatory in any of our children’s ballet classes and children are most welcome to dance barefoot or in socks.

Many of our young dancers love dressing up and wearing beautiful ballet shoes, which is why we created our own shop.

We offer a selection of sparkling and shiny shoes that are not only fun, but especially support growing feet by helping them connect to the ground and develop strength!
