At HDS, we proudly follow the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) ballet syllabus, offering young dancers a structured and inspiring journey through the ballet grades. Junior dancers in Grade 1 and 2 build on foundational ballet skills while growing into strong, resilient people and forming special friendships.
In addition to ballet, children can experience the excitement of ISTD Modern dance, which blends jazz and lyrical styles often seen on the West End stage. These dynamic classes focus on building strength, flexibility, and musicality while fostering creativity and confidence.
Students are able to showcase their progress in our annual studio show and Performance Awards. Dancers also have the option to participate in regulated RAD and ISTD dance exams should they participate in two weekly classes.
Our fully equipped studios, complete with mirrors and ballet barres, provide the perfect space for young dancers to grow and thrive.
