Ballet Classes

Our teachers are accredited with the Royal Academy of Dance and classes are available for children from Pre Primary to Grade 8 with Vocational Level exams from Intermediate Foundation to Advanced 2.

Classes are also available for adults.

Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) is an internationally accredited dance syllabus, the largest governing body of classical ballet in the world. RAD is dedicated to the training of dancers, recreational and professional. The thorough curriculum is designed to be progressively appropriate for the dancer based on age and development. At the discretion of the teacher, exams are entered at the end of each year which maintains a high standard of training and celebrates the achievement of our students.

The Vocational Level exam awards are accepted by the school districts across Canada for students’ high school credit.
