Our Tots Ballet classes follow our very own Pre School syllabus! Innovative and creative, your little one will twirl, giggle and bounce their way through each class. Always new adventures, their little faces when they leave are priceless!

All based on the fundamentals of ballet. Our pre-School classes help develop performance skills and encourage children to build friendships and confidence.

We love to see our students progressing through the school, many of our current seniors joined us at pre-school age, which is where they discovered their love for the Performing Arts.

From the age of 4 years we offer a variety of classes in tap, jazz, musical theatre, hip hop and acro – click below to find out more.

We’re excited to offer a combined tap and jazz class for this age group … read more below to learn more about this fantastic class!

Tap

Who remembers their first pair of Tap shoes? The excitement they bring to any young dancer is unforgettable! A huge emphasis is made on making friends, memories and lifelong experiences.  

Tapping their way through each week, learning rhythm through being animals in the jungle, dancing to your childs favourite soundtracks and learning to express themselves during tap based games, we really do have a ball! 

We are always so in awe of our little ones and how they attack each challenge, we are a very “can do” team and invest in each student that comes through the JA doors! 

Jazz 

Jazz is where lots of us start our Dance journey. Your child will enjoy the freedom of Jazz movement, learning to turn, leap, jump and skip their way through their classes! Full of excitement and adventure, we challenge each student each week to be the best they can be. Your child will learn to express themselves through their performance and giggle their way out of the door to greet you at the end!

We focus on learning how to move and understand our bodies. We base this session loosely on the ISTD lower grades when the students first join, which are fun and vibrant way of learning! Your child will also have a head start when they move on and learn the graded work.

Once the fundamentals have been learned, we then move onto exploring choreography and performing. These classes are fantastic for children who would like a little more confidence or children who have lots of energy to put into a hobby!
