Children's Dance (School Year Reception Upwards)
Ballet
Ballet is considered to be one of the foundation styles of dance. Not only does it develop many physical skills such as posture, balance and co-ordination, it also raises awareness of the discipline required for improvement and progression. Our Nelson studios follow the RAD syllabus and our Burnley & Blackburn studios follow the IDTA syllabus. Highly recommended for anyone interested in pursuing a career in dance.
(Please note that many of our younger/beginner classes are listed under “Ballet & Tap Combined Class”)
Is it suitable for my child?
For each of our children’s dance classes, the age group that the class is suitable for is specified on the timetable and we kindly ask that you follow this guidance. Many of our classes are suitable for all levels. We do however recommend that you get in touch before bringing your child to a class for the first time so that we can double-check that the level is right for them.
What should my child wear?
When trying these classes for the first time, we recommend wearing a T-Shirt & Leggings for the first couple of weeks. Once happy with the class, we ask that participants wear our set class uniform. Please ask your teacher for further details.
What our customers say…
“My daughter attended Ballet classes at Sandersons from aged 2 to 18. Not only did she develop and nurture this skill, she also made some wonderful friendships that will last a lifetime ”
