LISA GILBERT ACADEMY OF BALLET AND PERFORMING ARTS

These classes prepare children for ballet and other dance genres at higher levels incorporating listening, co-ordination and social skills. Through carefully structured dance classes to music they also develop physical skills, rhythm, creativity, expression, and musicality using a range of movement and musical styles introducing basic ballet technique and mime. Pupils learn through an imaginative setting by telling a story through their dancing. The classes are further enhanced by the use of props such as musical instruments, pom-poms, flags and floor markers to help the children to interact, build their confidence and most importantly have lots fun!

These ballet classes are often combined with a 15-minute introduction to tap where the children love to make a noise in their tap shoes whilst learning basic tap steps and routines. Set to catchy songs, these classes are upbeat and lots of fun.

Upon entering the main entrance our room is just to the left with a lovely cafe and gardens to sit and wait
