Dance Tuition--Ballet &/or Theatrical

Dancing is great exercise and lots of fun; it’s a great social activity, and a challenge for the body. But first you have to find a style that suits you. From jazz to ballet to b-boy styling – how do you know which dance style is right for you?

The best way to find out is to experiment. If you can’t make up your mind between a couple of dance styles, try a couple of classes. You may find that clogging around in tap shoes just doesn’t work for you. Or you may find line dancing with a bunch of strangers invigorating. You’ll never really know until you try. Theatrical dance is an umbrella term that covers all the styles of dance that are not done simply for socialising. Theatrical dance may be hip-hop or it may be ballet, but it’s not the boogieing you do with your friends on the dance floor!

Originating as a courtly dance in France in the 16th century, ballet is typically performed to classical music. It’s taught in dance schools and studios around the world, with students ranging in age from toddlers to adults. But in order to become proficient at ballet you must be extremely dedicated to the art and diligent in regard to practice and rehearsal time. The earlier you start in life, the more chance you have of finding out if you are a natural talent.

Enhancing your life with ballet means that you are going to get a great work out, learn better body posture – and you will gain confidence from the new power you have over your co-ordination. For a more graceful outlook on life, ballet is the best of theatrical dances.
