COURSES OFFERED BY SOUTH LONDON DANCE SCHOOL

Melody Movement classes at SLDS introduce children from 18 months to music and natural movement.

Our Primary Ballet classes are for boys and girls with the experience in ballet from age 7 or 8 years, and for 9 year old beginners. 

Boys improve their ability to learn new routines quickly and also develop their strength and flexibility.

At around age 7 or 8, boys move from Junior Funky Moves into Boys Street (I) and Grade 1 Modern to further improve their dance skills and to start learning basic dance technique. It is compulsory to learn both modern and street together.

Children from around 7 years with experience in tap dancing, and complete beginners aged 8 and 9 years, can join our energetic and funky Primary tap classes. 

Our contemporary classes increase physical understanding and awareness whilst developing better range of movement, using the idea of weight and gravity in travelling/swing sequences and the important skill of moving in and out of the floor in a seemingly effortless way.

These skills are very useful for any children considering a career in the performing arts where versatility is the key to success.

The teacher adapts the routines to suit individuals so this class is suitable for all levels (except professional level).
