Tippy Toe Twirlers Eltham 4-7 years 10.55am

By Tippy Toes Ballet

Tippy Toe Twirlers, where one adult watches! In the Tippy Toe Twirler class for 4-7 year olds, we introduce more technique and enhanced ballet steps. Through this, your child will enjoy a sense of pride and achievement. ​In this class, we encourage our ballet dancers to focus and concentrate to a greater degree. We now introduce more individual and partner activities, and the class will follow more complex choreography, whilst still keeping the focus on story telling, creativity and imagination. Children leave with a bounce in their step and a smile on their face.

Kids Jazz Dance Classes — Ages 5–8

By DanceWithUs

Jazz dance classes for children aged 4 to 8 in Stratford, at Chobham Academy in East Village. Bright, upbeat and full of the big shapes children love — kicks, turns, jumps and a routine to work towards. Jazz is where a lot of dancers find their confidence, because it rewards energy and personality as much as precision. Underneath the fun it's real technique: alignment, coordination, musicality and the habit of learning choreography quickly. It feeds straight into Junior Jazz when they're ready. Complete beginners welcome. No experience needed.

Intermediate Acro Dance Classes — Ages 9–16

By DanceWithUs

Two hours of acro dance a week for children aged 9 to 16, at Chobham Academy in East Village, Stratford. Walkovers, limbers, handsprings and aerial work, built skill by skill with proper matting and proper spotting. Nobody moves up before the prerequisites are there — that's how acro stays safe. The second hour is strength and conditioning: core, shoulders, wrists, hip flexibility and the controlled landing. It's the least glamorous hour of the week and it's the reason our dancers get their skills and keep their bodies intact. For dancers who've completed Acro Beginners or have equivalent experience.

Contemporary Dance Classes for Teens — Ages 5–18

By DanceWithUs

Contemporary dance classes for young people aged 5 to 18 in Stratford, East London. Floor work, release technique, weight and momentum, and choreography that's about something. Contemporary is the style where dancers stop performing steps and start saying things — and for teenagers in particular, that turns out to matter enormously. It builds strength and control that show up in every other style, and it's the discipline most valued if a dancer later auditions for college or conservatoire. Some previous dance experience is helpful but not essential.
