Boys Ballet Academy
A specialised training in Boys Ballet
Ballet
Ballet is art, exercise and sport all in one. As the basic foundation for most forms of dance, ballet will improve line, posture, flexibility, alignment and strength. It can also be an outlet, helping to relieve stress and anxiety, as well as being lots of fun.
Dance Workshops
We run frequent dance workshops that are open to any boys (inc non BBA pupils) aged between 4-17yrs. They are a wonderful opportunity for the boys to learn, experience and appreciate an array of dance forms.
Taster Sessions
NEW taster session with our new teacher Mr Paul in our new studio location.
We welcome and encourage boys to try a class with us whether they are an experienced dancer or a complete beginner, we can accommodate all abilities, and it promises to be lots of fun.

What the dancers say
Daniel is thoroughly enjoying his ballet classes. He is coming home and showing us what he’s learned each week and is keen to go back each week and learn more. He even said yesterday that he would like to be a professional dancer when he grows up! The learning environment is fun, exciting, inspiring and pitched perfectly for an excitable 7 year old boy. Daniel has spoken highly of Alex as a teacher. Thank you so much Boys Ballet Academy for introducing us to something that we may not have done otherwise.
As a boy who has danced since he could walk, the BBA taster session was a massive hit with Seb (senior class). He really gained a lot from the depth of the teaching. He said the explanations given by the teacher were really beneficial to his dance technique. He loved working with just males – peers and teacher- as it is so rarely the case. He came home as high as a kite which is always a good sign with 15 year old boys! Thank you BBA for providing the teaching and the space for this sharing of boys and ballet to happen. Great work 🙌🏻
My son absolutely loves the primary class, each week they get to become pirates and super heroes, and learn through lots of fun and imagination!
