Classes For The Higher Grades and Vocational Studies

The Euridge School of Dancing, a Contemporary Dance club in Exeter, offers a range of classes for ballet students who are dedicated to honing their skills. Specifically, they provide classes for the higher grades and vocational studies, catering to those who are more mature and serious about their dancing.

For those focusing on the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) higher grades, the emphasis lies in developing a strong technique, spatial awareness, and an aesthetic line. Students in these grades also have the opportunity to explore performance techniques, as well as delve into expression and projection in their dancing. Grade 7 classes are held on Tuesdays from 6.15 to 7.00 p.m., Grade 8 classes are held on Tuesdays from 7.00 to 7.45 p.m., and Grade 6 classes are held on Tuesdays from 7.45 to 8.30 p.m.

Additionally, the club offers vocational classes for students who are eager to further enhance their skills. These classes adhere to the RAD syllabus for ballet and the ISTD syllabus for modern and tap. Putting self-motivation and organisation at the forefront, the vocational grades encourage students to find their own style in dancing. Moreover, strength and stretch classes are included to help students grasp the intricacies of their muscles and joints, enabling them to excel in executing demanding virtuoso steps.

To cater to different levels of proficiency, the club provides various class options. Intermediate foundation ballet classes are held on Tuesdays from 5.30 to 6.15 p.m. and Thursdays from 7.45 to 8.30 p.m., while advanced foundation ballet classes are held on Tuesdays from 4.45 to 5.30 p.m. and Thursdays from 8.30 to 9.15 p.m. For those interested in modern dance, intermediate classes take place on Thursdays from 7.45 to 8.30 p.m., and Advanced 1 classes are held on Thursdays from 6.15 to 7.00 p.m. If tap dance is your passion, intermediate tap classes are available on Fridays from 7.15 to 8.00 p.m., and Advanced 1 tap classes are held on Thursdays. Additionally, a strength and stretch class is offered for all vocational grades in ballet, modern, and tap, with different group timings available throughout the week.
