The School

The school is located in the Memorial Hall, Upper Bucklebury , where we have a large centrally heated studio with a sprung wooden floor, barres and good heated changing rooms. There is ample, well lit parking and facilities for parents to wait in comfort.

Upper Bucklebury is just outside Thatcham and very close to Newbury. We believe that the atmosphere in our school is friendly & professional and that all our students are here because, like the teachers, they love to dance. If you are seriously considering choosing a school for yourself or for your child, you may care to read a few notes on this.

Our students have been successful in gaining places in: The Royal Ballet School (Upper and Lower schools), English National Ballet School, Central School, Elmhurst, Arts Educational, London Contemporary Dance School, Rambert School of Ballet and London Studio Centre. Many have been awarded Cecchetti Society Scholarships. Ex students are also dancing in professional ballet companies. A number of our students have passed the Cecchetti teaching qualifications and are now pursuing a career in teaching Classical Ballet in London and abroad.
We are now able to offer classes in both Cecchetti Ballet and Musical Theatre and Tap at all levels.
