Torrington Timetable Summer 2026
Ballet
Following the BBODance Ballet syllabus, classes combine imaginative storytelling with carefully structured exercises that nurture rhythm, musicality, and expression. Alongside developing coordination, balance, and posture, students also gain an appreciation for the artistry of ballet—building confidence, creativity, and stage presence in a fun and supportive environment.
Tap
Our youngest tappers are introduced to the exciting world of rhythm and sound through playful, imaginative exercises. At this stage, children learn to coordinate simple steps with musical beats, developing listening skills, timing, and a strong sense of rhythm.
Following the structured BBODance Tap syllabus, classes lay the foundation for correct tap technique while encouraging creativity, expression, and confidence. With plenty of fun, energy, and opportunities to explore movement through sound, these classes give children a joyful first experience of tap dance and prepare them for future progression.
Musical Theatre
Our Musical Theatre classes give young performers the perfect chance to shine by combining singing, dancing, and acting in one fun-filled class. At this level, children explore movement, rhythm, and storytelling through songs and simple routines that spark imagination and build confidence. They are introduced to stagecraft skills such as projecting their voices, using expression, and performing as part of a group. With an emphasis on creativity and play, these classes help children develop strong foundations in performance while nurturing a love of the stage.
FAQ'S
Can my child try a class before enrolling?
Absolutely! We offer a 4-week trial for just £20. Think of it like a class pass, your child can try as many classes in their age group as they like during those four weeks. It’s a great way for them to explore, find their favourites, and settle in before choosing the right class for them.
Absolutely! We offer free trial classes every week. Just book online or give us a call.
What should my child wear to class?
Comfortable clothing like leggings, joggers, or shorts with a t-shirt is perfect for moving freely. We will do our best to find a pair of dance shoes they can borrow while they settle in.
Comfy clothes they can move in! Barefoot or sneakers are fine for most beginner classes.
Do you hold performances or showcases?
