New pupils

If you are interested in attending your first free of charge class, please contact Jane Tilley to confirm the best day and time to attend on 0870  850  6851.

Frequently asked questions from new pupils:

Clothing - Comfortable clothing is suitable for the first few classes.

Foot wear - We suggest bare feet if ballet shoes are not worn for the first few classes.

Welcome pack - At the first class each pupil will be given a Welcome Pack (link to pdf) which includes a registration form for completion, a standing order form and further details about the school.

Uniform - After a few classes each pupil is asked to wear the school uniform (shoes, socks, leotard, vollé skirt & cardigan), which we sell at the beginning of each class.

Fees - Pupils can commence tuition at any point in the term. After the first free of charge class pupils will need to pay for the remaining weeks in the term.

Exams - We enter pupils for the Royal Academy of Dance examinations from five years of age. Jane or another qualified teacher will assess each pupil's suitability for examination and discusses the entry with the pupil and parent. Examination entry is not compulsory and pupils can skip an exam and move up to the next class at the appropriate time.

Extras - All pupils may participate in our shows, summer school and workshops.
