Tiny Tots, Pre-Primary & Primary
A gentle, joyful introduction to ballet through stories, music, and play that builds coordination, listening, and a lifelong love of movement.
Ballet.
RAD-aligned classical ballet at Hooked On Dance — building posture, strength, and artistry from Tiny Tots through to teens and adults.
The class
Technique, artistry, and confidence.
Ballet is the foundation of every strong dancer, and at Hooked On Dance it is taught with patience, precision, and a genuine love for the art form. Our classes follow the internationally recognised Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) syllabus, giving students a clear, graded pathway from their very first plié to advanced exam work and performance.
Each class blends technique with creativity. Students develop correct posture and alignment, controlled strength and flexibility, musicality, and the quiet confidence that comes from mastering something difficult. Younger dancers begin with imaginative, play-based movement, while older students refine vocabulary, turns, and pointe-readiness under careful, qualified guidance.
Because every dancer grows at their own pace, students are placed by age, ability, and readiness rather than rushed through levels. Optional RAD examinations give those who want them a recognised qualification and a real sense of achievement, while others simply enjoy dancing for fitness, expression, and friendship. New students are always welcome, whatever their starting point.
Levels
A pathway for every age.
Students are grouped by age, ability, and readiness so every dancer is challenged and supported in equal measure.
