Dance Classes

​

​Street Dance

Classes are aimed at ages 2-18 years old and are a great way to get energised to popular kids’ songs. Many different forms of street dance are covered in this class such as: Hip-hop, house, commercial and freestyle! Children will gain an understanding of the basic social grooves and techniques, which are then incorporated into show routines. This is a very popular and fun class and a great way to build confidence.

Lyrical Dance

Classes are aimed at ages 4 -18 years. Lyrical combines the foundations of ballet and modern dance, focusing on expression and storytelling through dance movement and connecting with the lyrics of a song. Classes consist of technical exercises and inspiring dance routines. We incorporate the use of props and improvisation to help encourage children’s creativity.

Rhythm Classes 

We have a Rhythm and Movement class for children aged 1.5 - 4 years old.  If your child loves to make noise and move, then this could be the ideal class for them.  We also have a Rhythm & Music class for those aged 4 - 6 who are keen on learning the drums.  This session will give them the skills they need before progressing onto a main drum kit.

Quiet Classes

Here at BALPA we understand that some children struggle with crowded and noisy classes.  Whether diagnosed with an additional need or not, these could be the classes for your child(ren).  The class will be limited to a maximum of 10 students and with a very low level of music (children are welcome to wear headphones if it helps them) and taught by tutors with not only great skills, but also have experience of working with children with a variety of additional needs.  These classes will be 60 minutes long and parents can wait in our café-style reception area enjoying a cup of tea or coffee during the class so they are on hand if needed, but also giving the child space to be independent where they are able to be.

Adult Dance

Here at BALPA, we now offer adult dance classes. If you're looking for a way to keep fit, have fun and make friends then this is for you! Our adult dance classes offer a mixture of styles from street to disco, musical theatre and more.  We offer two different levels of class so you can work at the pace you want to.  If the classes happen to be full,  there is a waiting list available so don't miss out.
