About our baby ballet classes

An introduction to ballet in a fun, friendly class that uses imagery and weekly adventures to keep the little ones smiling. Stimulating music helps our youngest dancers learn basic technique, poise and coordination. Once they turn five, they move up to Pre-Primary.

We teach baby ballet on Monday, Tuesday and Saturday at Westwood Social Club in Tilehurst, Spencers Wood Pavilion in Spencers Wood and The Cornwell Centre in Tilehurst. There are 3 weekly classes to choose from.

“I can’t recommend Miss Marie and Dance Sensation enough. My daughter absolutely loves her ballet classes and has progressed so much since starting. Miss Marie has a wonderful manner with the dancers and is a fantastic role model, kind and gentle while getting the best out of each dancer.”
