Contemporary

All professional classical dancers must also have a strong knowledge and understanding of contemporary movement. These classes will help students to gain a strong foundation in contemporary technique, and understand the importance of being grounded and stable in order to feel release and expansion.

Each class has a recommended age band and reflects the level of training given to students of that age group at The Royal Ballet School. This is a guide only, and students may take any class they feel is suitable for their level, provided they meet the minimum age recommendation. Please check the ‘Who can participate’ guidance under each class and check with your dance teacher if you’re not sure.
