Ballet technique training in London

“We have loved ballet classed with Miss Lika. Since our daughter was small she has really enjoyed the classes. Prima School of Ballet make their classes fun, very engaging and really inspiring and as a result our daughter has developed a love for ballet. We highly recommend them.”

“Our children have been taking lessons with RSB for the last 9 years, and we really can't recommend them highly enough. Our daughter takes several dance classes in different disciplines which she absolutely loves. All 3 of our children also attend Starlight, their musical theatre course, which they enjoy immensely. The numerous performance opportunities the children have had has really helped them to grow in confidence and to develop life skills which sadly can't always be taught within the confines of the National Curriculum. RSB's teachers are fantastic, both in their level of expertise and their ability to nurture the children as individuals.”

“I can’t praise Laure and Dancebuzz enough. I love my beginners ballet classes. It is so well structured and so passionately taught, very friendly and suitable for absolute beginners like me. It became my favourite thing of the week. Thanks Laure. I wish one day I will be half as graceful as you are.”

“Fantastic ballet school. My daughter has been attending for the past few months. We have tried other ballet schools within the area, but found that there was not enough attention and ethos on learning, they seemed more focused on playing games and entertaining the children. With Nutcracker ballet school you really get a mixture of learning and fun. The lessons are very structured and allot of thought and effort goes into them. Would definitely recommend.”

“Excellent place to study ballet. Attached to a very good company.”

“This is a wonderful ballet school that instills a love of dance. There is always an atmosphere of calm and respect here. teachers who work are dedicated to their work. my daughter loves her teacher very much and has been attending classes with great pleasure for 2 years now”

“I have been a part of this school for many years and have only had a positive experience- I was helped to reach grade 7 by the exemplary teachers who work here. I felt pushed to work harder as a ballerina from a place of love and care, and have achieved all my goals because of this school. Additionally, the studio itself is beautiful, clean and well-kept, and I felt fully prepared for each of my exams.”

“This is a wonderful local ballet school. My daughter has been attending classes here since she was 3 years old and is now 10. During that time, I have seen her progress so beautifully, developing confidence and physical control in her ballet technique. The teachers are all incredibly caring. They take safeguarding extremely seriously, and always have the children's welfare at the forefront of their minds. I have every confidence in their ability to look after my child, and it's obvious that they are adored by the kids. I would definitely recommend this school.”

“We are so pleased with our daughter’s growth and confidence in her ballet classes! She is constantly talking about ballet and says ‘my ballet school’ anytime we walk past. She’s almost 2.5 years old and I know her classes will support her confidence in everything she does. Ms Amy is an amazing teacher and so supportive. Thank you!”

“Our daughter has loved being apart of LGA. The teachers are fantastic and the culture first class.”

“First class training. Professional environment. I achieved a degree in 3 years. BA, life changing.”

“Beautiful studios and superb teaching with Bethany Ramsey”

“What an impressive building in the middle of the Richmond park. Commissioned in 1725 as a hunting lodge for George I, White Lodge remains part of the Crown Estate to this day and partly housing the well known The Royal Ballet School. Here a little bit of a history: A misunderstood politician John Stuart, 3rd Earl of Bute (1713–1792) was appointed Ranger of the Park by George III in 1761 and took up residence at White Lodge. In 1801, George III assigned White Lodge to Henry Addington (a middle-class Prime Minister), later Viscount Sidmouth, as a ‘grace and favour’ residence. Addington, who served as Prime Minister from 1801 to 1804, remained at the Lodge until his death in 1844. The Empress Elizabeth of Austria-Hungary (Sissi) (1837–1898) stayed at White Lodge for the hunting season in the summer of 1874. In 1881 Sir Henry Irving and Ellen Terry were guests, the famous Victorian actors, who had recently starred at the Lyceum Theatre as Hamlet and Ophelia in Shakespeare’s tragic play of Hamlet. In January 1912, the famous ballerina, Anna Pavlova, and her partner, Laurent Novikoff, performed at Richmond Theatre with the members of the Company of the Imperial Ballet, St Petersburg. Many decades later, students of The Royal Ballet School would follow in Pavlova’s footsteps, dancing each summer at Richmond Theatre during the 1970s and 1980s. On 13 August 1924, there was another royal birth at White Lodge. Prince Aleksander Pavlov Karadorevic was born to Princess Olga of Greece and Denmark and Prince Paul of Yugoslavia, in the same room as that in which Prince Edward of Wales had been born, 30 years earlier. The marriage of Mrs Reynolds Albertini and Colonel James Veitch of the Coldstream Guards was reported in the Evening News on 12 April 1950. They continued to occupy White Lodge after the war, and hosted Marshal Tito there when he came to England on a state visit, March 1953. The Foreign Office agreed to Tito’s entourage being 29 strong, but let only 12 reside with him at White Lodge. For security reasons, Tito was not accommodated in a London. During the Autumn Term of the new academic year 1955/6, the first cohort of students boarding at White Lodge had to travel to their daily lessons at the School's Colet Gardens site in Barons Court, as the Stable Block classrooms were not yet ready.”

“Moved to BBA a year ago and very happy with decision. My child settled and made friends quickly and we’ve been impressed by the progress she’s made.”
