A ballet dancer needs many years of training and students who choose to dedicate their life to dance must find inspirational teachers. Ballet is a challenging and exciting art form with so much more to be learnt than sheer technical accomplishments, artistry needs nurturing and individualism encouraged.
At Moorland, our ballet students are consistently supported in order to help them to fulfil their dreams. With performance, travel, masterclass and scholarship opportunities made available to them.
Ballet is multi-faceted. At Moorland we use classical technique combined with traditional stories and contemporary choreographic practice to produce the character of modern ballet.
Ballet is an art form created by the human body. We hone technique, create strength and cultivate creativity. We give our students all the tools necessary to develop as dancers and realise their dreams.

Students receive the very best education in class sizes of approximately twenty students on average and delivered by a young and dynamic teaching team. The importance of having such a quality educational provision, together with excellent pastoral support, cannot be underestimated when it comes to young students. A complete dance education is a continual, growing experience incorporating mind, body and spirit.
Students enrolled on to the Moorland International Ballet Academy programme have access to a private school education, either as a day student or as a boarding student. This is a partnership between parents, Moorland School and the Ballet Academy.
The aim is to equip each student with an outstanding ballet programme of study, alongside a comprehensive academic curriculum, whilst ensuring they are safe, happy and growing in confidence.
The programme provides non syllabus masterclasses for boys and girls aged from 7 years. The aim is to provide an opportunity for like-minded children to meet and share their passion.
The programme has been created to complement the student’s current training enabling them to continue to study with their regular dance teacher, whilst experiencing an insight into vocational training.
This intensive and stimulating course is for students studying dance who wish to improve their technical and performance skills, and will include classes in classical ballet, body conditioning, classical repertoire, classical solos and contemporary. The course culminates in a short demonstration of work for parents and teachers.
Students are divided into groups according to age and ability. Accommodation for all residential students will be provided in the boarding houses at Moorland School, or students are welcome to attend on a daily basis.
We post daily tips and important information as well as guides and insights to everything we do at our Ballet Academy.
