Classical Ballet Classes

At Hills Ballet School we pride ourselves on providing high quality, dynamic classes using the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus. We value the foundation Classical Ballet gives our dancers and find creative ways to explore ballet’s challenging concepts.

“Learning to walk sets you free. Learning to dance gives you the greatest freedom of all: to express with your whole self, the person you are.”

Melissa Hayden (an American actress. Prior to her acting career, she was a longtime member of the California-based song and dance troupe The Young Americans)

Whilst some students enter exams and assessments, this is not a requirement and many students enjoy their dance class without this additional committment.
