Congratulations to Eliana! She received the wonderful news that she has successfully auditioned for a place on the Bolshoi Ballet Academy's London Winter Intensive 2022!
​
Following her successful audition, Eliana will attend a one week intensive and be taught by full-time faculty from the Bolshoi Ballet Academy in Moscow.

We are thrilled to announce that we have been chosen to partner with English National Ballet to launch Ballet Futures: The Pipeline Project - a unique training programme aimed at supporting children from traditionally underrepresented backgrounds to take part in professional ballet training at the earliest possible point.

We are so proud to be one of a handful of schools in the UK to be offering this unique project in association with ENB.

Ballet Futures will provide gifted young dancers aged 8 and above, the training and space to develop their potential as young artists over several years. 
​
So, if your child loves dancing, is aged 8-12, and your family is of African Diaspora, Caribbean, South Asian or South East Asian heritage, please contact us for more information on how to apply for auditions for this project in 2022.

Such a lovely photo of our former student, Denis, who now trains at the prestigious Royal Ballet School, London.

On Monday 24th October, our Silver Swans® enjoyed a lovely online coffee morning – thank you to everyone who joined us!

Congratulations to Lola, Amelia and Sophie who are featured in the Roch Valley Dancewear 2021-2022 trade catalogue, sent to dancewear retailers all across the UK!

This was Lola and Amelia's first time at a dance photoshoot, and they modelled ballet leotards, skirts, freestyle/jazz outfits and accessories. 
​
The catalogue also features some previous photos of Sophie from her photoshoot with Roch Valley a few years ago.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us online for our Silver Swans® event for Silver Sunday! It was our fourth year of hosting a Silver Swans ballet class for the annual Silver Sunday celebrations, and our fourth year of the event being fully booked.

We had participants signed up from all across Manchester, Yorkshire, Isle of Man, Tyne and Wear, Norfolk, Dorset Northamptonshire, London, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Cheshire.

Have you seen the new Dancewear Central 2021-2022 catalogue? You might recognise some familiar faces from our school!

Well done to Emily, Miley, Gia, Denis, Mami, Ella, Mia and Sophie who all feature throughout the children's section. They appear alongside professional dancers from the Royal Ballet, English National Ballet and Royal Ballet Upper School.
