Class details

Chez Bebe – Toddler ballet

A magical first step into the world of dance! Our Baby Ballet classes introduce little ones to movement, music and imagination in a fun, nurturing environment. Through gentle exercises, playful games and simple ballet steps, children build confidence, coordination and creativity — all while making new friends.

Little Stars 4-6 year old – Mixed discipline class

For our youngest dancers, we combine all three of our fundamental styles, ballet, tap and freestyle into one hour long class (this is in our opinion the best length class for their age). In every class they will work on techniques of all the styles and will always be working on a number of routines. At this age we encourage kids to embrace all dance styles, and it is great to see where their talent shines through.

£25.50 Per Month + platform fee

Rising Stars 7 – 9 year olds – Ballet, Tap & Freestyle

Once are dancers are a bit older, we split classes into out three different disciplines. This ensures they get enough time to focus on individual styles, without one taking over. We highly encourage students to take all three classes in order to become the best dancer they can be (and offer a discount for doing so).

1 class = £16 per month | 2 classes = £32 per month | 3 classes = £38 per month + platform fee

Shining Stars 10 – 12 year olds – Ballet, Tap & Freestyle

Once our dancers hit double digits, their class times increase by 10 minutes to 40 minutes each, to give even more time for perfecting their skills. Again, classes are split by discipline to ensure each style gets the focus it deserves.

1 class = £19 per month | 2 classes = £38 per month | 3 classes = £48 per month + Platform Fee

Superstars 13+ year olds – Ballet, Tap & Freestyle

Our class format stays the same for our teenagers. All classes are 40 minutes long, and we encourage all dancers to take part in all three styles (especially if they hope to dance as an adult). Each class is 40 minutes long and they run back-to-back.

1 class = £19 per month | 2 classes = £38 per month | 3 classes = £48 per month + Platform Fee

Dance for Fun – 6-10 year old and 11+

Every child is different and not all classes will suit every one of them. This is why we offer our Dance for Fun classes. These classes have a freestyle focus and are perfect for kids that just love to dance to music. Whilst correct technique will always be taught, these classes have a less structured feel to them and are great for the kids who struggle with the more ordered feel of our regular classes. This class is routine based, with dances being taught to whatever is ‘trending’ at the time. Classes are 45 minutes long and split in to two rough age groups of 6-10 year olds and 11+.

£23 per month + Platform Fee

Please note – all age groups are a rough guideline of what class your child should join. We are flexible (within reason) on this and will consider allowing children in a different class, however, this is at our discretion.
