Ballet is the foundation for all forms of dance because it allows opportunities for students to develop grace, poise, and musicality. The Royal Academy of Dance syllabus is used as the basis for all classes.

RAD provides professional instruction focusing on classical, free movement, and character styles. Music theory completes the program.
Examiners come from all over the world to ensure that both the students and the WDS dance program are functioning at a level acceptable to the RAD. Students will have the opportunity to take formal examinations when certain skill levels and standards have been achieved (at the discretion of the instructors). Students are placed according to age and ability.
At Westshore Dance Studios (WDS), our goal is to provide training and development for all who have a desire to dance. As a professional dance school, Westshore Dance Studios offers quality instruction to students of varying ages and ability in a friendly and respectful environment. We offer diversity in dance styles, and provide examinations in the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) for ballet, and the Association of International Dance Teachers (AIDT) for modern jazz and tap
. Students have opportunities to perform in our annual recital and local festivals to demonstrate their dance knowledge, skill, and artistic expression. It is our sincere hope that all dancers who enter our studios will be musically, physically, and creatively inspired to carry a love of dance with them always.

All adult ballet participants train at the barre and in the centre, executing a series of classical ballet exercises designed to develop coordination, strength, proper posture, and musicality.
Once students enter grade 1 at school they proceed into 45 minute to 60 minute classes. More focus is placed on proper technique and execution. We continue to maintain age appropriate music and movement for all age levels.
