SOUTHWEST SCHOOL OF BALLET

Southwest School of Ballet first opened in Putney in 1993, since then it has grown and continues to deliver high quality dance classes. We offer classes for all children from 2½ to 18 years, as well as Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) Intermediate, Pointe and Adult classes.

We provide a continuing and progressive education in ballet to all our pupils, following the RAD syllabus to promote a love of dance in an imaginative and stimulating environment, and to nurture and encourage all our students to fulfil their potential. As the development of musicality is such an important part of early dance training, our children’s classes are accompanied by experienced pianists.
In addition to weekly classes and RAD examinations, Southwest School of Ballet provides its members with performance opportunities and has produced six original, full length ballets.

With over 30 years of experience we continue to provide quality ballet classes to all ages of the local community, including dance classes for nursery schools in Putney.
