Our children’s ballet classes carry a holistic, creative and playful approach to teaching. Striving for a fun and child oriented environment in which each child can follow its natural desire to move whilst learning ballet technique in a safe and age appropriate way, Svenja includes elements of the Royal Academy of Dance's syllabus, appreciating their developmental orientation.

Her classes promote a child-friendly, safe dance practice in which children are encouraged to learn their first technical skills alongside developing creativity, imagination, and confidence through the joy of dancing.
Svenja has taught and facilitated creative dance and children's ballet for over 15 years and loves supporting young dancers in finding their artistic voice through movement and dance.

    • Ballet mum

    • Ballet dad

  • “We've been to a few dance classes and I've got to say yours is my favourite. You are so great with the kids, there is a lovely community atmosphere amongst the parents and the activities are really fun.”

    • Ballet dad

  • My child probably most enjoys the music, then all the wonderful props and freedom to use the space as she wishes. And I am very pleased with the nonjudgmental nature of the classes, where children are free to dance in their own way (not often found in ballet!). And Svenja is so wonderfully engaging and kind to the children.
