Safe and lots of enjoyment. This class prepares the children ready to progress to Primary Ballet, Modern and Tap.
Modern & Tap
Modern is lots of fun! Styles include jazz and lyrical. The technique from the Ballet class provides a strong jazz foundation and helps in contemporary and musical theatre. Students can take optional ISTD examinations.
NGDS start Tap classes from the age of three. This builds a strong foundation for later work towards ISTD exams.
Students who study Tap alongside their Ballet and Modern find rhythm easier in other genres.
