Space to learn, create and perform.

Our first block focuses on the Junior Company, ages 6–12. Children build technique, confidence and friendships, with teaching adapted to their experience. Beginners receive clear guidance, while established dancers are challenged to develop further.

An example day: main taught dance sessions last 30 minutes, with styles and activities varying across the block. Weekly themes connect the dance sessions and afternoon project. Recharge stays separate — supervised, student-led time with no set task or expectation to produce anything.

Launching with a focused five-week training block.

Places will be deliberately limited so every student is known, challenged and supported. The programme is designed to complement each young person's wider education; it does not provide a complete school curriculum.

Academic tutoring · future plans

Interest in optional academic tutoring has been strong. Our shorter initial day leaves room to explore sessions alongside performing arts in the future. Tutoring is not included in this five-week block; subjects, staffing, times and any additional fees are yet to be confirmed.

Optional ISTD medal tests & awards

We’re also exploring optional ISTD medal tests and awards in jazz and ballet, giving interested dancers a goal to work towards and an opportunity to celebrate their progress. These are future possibilities; availability, preparation and any additional fees will be confirmed separately.

Interested? Tell us about your young performer.

Junior Company bookings are now open. If you have questions before booking, or would like to hear about future opportunities, register your interest or get in touch.
