Children's Ballet

Woking Surrey Community Dance understands the importance of providing quality ballet classes for children of all ages. The club offers a range of classes that not only bring joy and fun to the little dancers but also focus on teaching them the essential classical ballet steps.

For school-age children, the club follows the ISTD Ballet Grades, ensuring that they receive a well-rounded ballet education. The classes are designed to be enjoyable and engaging, helping children develop their skills and confidence in a friendly and supportive environment.

But it's not just the older children who get to enjoy the benefits of ballet. Woking Surrey Community Dance also offers a preschool ballet class for those little ones who simply love to dance. This class helps build confidence and introduces young children to the fundamentals of classical ballet through the use of imagery and props. It's a 40-minute lesson filled with fun and excitement!

While comfortable clothing is recommended for the classes, ballet clothing is not essential. However, having ballet shoes can be advantageous for the child's performance and overall experience. Plus, at the end of each class, children are rewarded with a well-deserved sticker for their efforts, adding an extra sprinkle of motivation and pride.

For children under the age of four, Woking Surrey Community Dance kindly requests that a parent or guardian is present throughout the entire lesson. This way, the little ones can feel supported and safe as they explore the world of ballet.

As children progress in their ballet journey, they have the option to move on to the Primary grade or even start in the Reception year at school. Woking Surrey Community Dance is committed to nurturing and developing young talent, and their classes cater to every age group, including adults. So, even if you're an adult wanting to fulfil your dancing dreams, the club is here to support you every step of the way.

The club also offers the option of ISTD Exams for those who wish to take them. However, there is absolutely no pressure to do so. Woking Surrey Community Dance believes that dancing should be a form of enjoyment and self-expression, and they encourage children who do not want to take exams to still participate in higher classes with their friends. The main goal is to have fun while learning and growing as a dancer.

All the ballet classes are held at the beautiful St Marks Church, conveniently located at 37 Westfield Road, Woking GU22 9NQ. The club takes pride in providing a safe and comfortable space for dancers to express themselves and discover the joy of dance.

They offer a range of classes that cater to different age groups and skill levels, ensuring that everyone can find their own rhythm and experience the magic of dance.
