Boys programme

Whilst the foundations of ballet training are the same for all children, there comes a point where the technique diverges and a different approach to teaching boys is required in order to prepare them for the aspects of technique which are specific to the male dance vocabulary. We also recognise that finding appropriately orientated ballet training is often difficult for boys. With both of these things in mind, we offer separate classes for boys dedicated to aspects of training which will focus on areas of ballet technique particular to the male repertoire such as turns and jumps steps along with preparation for pas de deux work.

Performance and competitive opportunities will be made available to students.

Classes offered will be age appropriate to the students attending and we aim to eventually be able to deliver separate boys classes at all levels. Currently we offer separate boys’ training at pre-vocational and postgraduate level.
