If you're looking for a nurturing environment for your child, we aim to foster a natural love of dance in all our students,
as well as its many benefits such as:
fitness, an understanding of music, good posture, physical strength & stamina, flexibility, memory and importantly, confidence
Classes take place in a safe, supportive and fun environment with a fully qualified dance teacher.
Ballet
Inspiring Performances Every Time
Our ballet classes will take the student on a journey through movement, encouraging interaction, co-ordination and balance whilst embracing the technique and discipline of classical ballet. We offer ballet exams in IBDP (Irish Board of Dance Performance) at Tubbercurry, Straide, Charlestown and Castlebar. Students will have the opportunity to partake in both exams and school stage performances.
Modern Theatre
Passionate, Energetic and Fun
We teach Modern Theatre Dance in Charlestown. The Modern Theatre Dance is a rhythmic dance style, it is often seen on the stages of musical productions and is known for its theatrical qualities. The style uses travelling steps, high kicks, leaps and turns which all need strength and flexibility. This is a highly energetic dance style. Students are given the opportunity to partake in the IBDP (Irish Board of Dance Performance) exams and school performances.
