Prout Sally

General information

The emphasis within the school is placed upon Classical Ballet, which secures strong technique and discipline and produces a solid foundation for all other dance genres. The Classical classes are complimented by Tap and Jazz lessons, which allow a freer use of expression.

Children are accepted from the age of 3 years. At this age Ballet is taught with the emphasis on stories and mime.

Later, pupils are able to attend Tap and Jazz classes. Tap helps to improve rhythm and musicality whilst the non-syllabus Jazz classes allow a freer style of dance expression with the emphasis on fun.

Examinations of The Royal Academy of Dance (Ballet), and Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (Tap), are followed, however examinations are not compulsory.
