ABOUT
These school holidays, the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) invites students to participate in a series of ballet classes, led by experienced RAD examiners who are expert in the RAD syllabus.
These classes focus on coaching the syllabus and improving the dancers' skills, technique, musicality and artistry. They are a great way to keep up fitness during the school holidays, prepare before RAD exams, meet new people and enjoy a special school holiday experience. 
Don't miss this great opportunity to receive expert tuition from experienced RAD examiners and tutors, and improve your ballet skills.
Be quick - classes limited to 25 students each
Register ASAP and before Monday 1 April at 8:00am
Please note, students can attend the course even if they don't have full knowledge of their level yet. Students are welcome to attend as long as they can copy/follow along with the other students and don’t expect to be taught the syllabus – the examiners are coaching rather than teaching.
CLASSES
Syllabus Classes:
- Intermediate Foundation up to Advanced 2
- Plus special male syllabus classes for Advanced 1 and Advanced 2
