Dance
This course is suitable for those with some experience in ballet who wish to continue developing. Perhaps you have already completed The Crescent’s Ballet: Beginners course or are returning to the artform as an adult after a break.
Throughout the term you will work on your ballet technique, go through the barre steps, improve your posture and strengthen your feet, all while having fun.
This course will be tutored by three dancers from The Clare Novaes School of Ballet.
