Royal Ballet School Junior Associate

Congratulations to Eliana who has been awarded a place as a Junior Associate of the Royal Ballet School.

The Royal Ballet School, London, offers elite training to exceptionally gifted dancers aged 11-18 years old. The Junior Associate scheme, introduces young dancers to the Royal Ballet School's specialist training programme from age 8.

Hundreds of children from across the country audition for places on the Royal Ballet School's prestigious Junior Associate programmes, with only a handful of successful students awarded a place.

Since starting ballet with us only two years ago, Eliana has progressed from a complete beginner to Grade 3 ballet (something that would normally take 5 years). This year, she has successfully been awarded places as a Junior Associate of both Elmhurst Ballet School and now the Royal Ballet School, too.

Eliana will continue her training with us, but will now also receive specialist weekly tuition from both the Royal Ballet School and Elmhurst Ballet School tutors.
