Helene Gowers Ballet Schools, located in Victoria Park, is a prestigious ballet institution dedicated to providing high-quality training in classical ballet. With branches in Mount Lawley, Como, Victoria Park, and Subiaco, the school offers a comprehensive programme for students of all ages and skill levels.
The school's faculty consists of highly trained and experienced ballet instructors, including Miss Helene Gowers, who oversees the Mount Lawley, Como, and Victoria Park (Thursdays) branches. Miss Gemma Esvelt, Ingrid Horeb, Ashley To, and Annelise Colman are also part of the faculty, teaching at the Victoria Park branch on Saturdays.
The classes at Helene Gowers Ballet Schools are designed to cater to the diverse needs of students. The Tiny Tots Classes, aimed at children aged 3 to 5 years, focus on fun and enjoyment while introducing basic ballet techniques. Children learn through popular characters like The Wiggles, The Fairies, Angelina Ballerina, nursery rhymes, skipping, marching, running, and more. These classes help develop children's imagination and creativity through movement.
For recreational dancers of all levels, the school offers a wide range of classes. Students have the opportunity to participate in various levels, allowing them to develop fitness, a love for movement, and an appreciation for other art forms, particularly music.
The Pre-Primary/Primary classes, designed for children aged 6 to 8 years, gently introduce ballet techniques while emphasising creativity and imagination. These classes help students build muscle strength, flexibility, and coordination. Students at this level also have the opportunity to participate in examinations and earn medals.
For more advanced students, Helene Gowers Ballet Schools offers Levels 1 to 6. These classes focus on developing artistic and spatial awareness, as well as cultivating good listening skills and critical thinking. As students progress, they develop self-discipline and may choose to sit exams after studying dance for a minimum of 2 hours per week.
The senior levels of Intermediate, Advanced 1, and Advanced 2 are dedicated to students who aspire to be professional vocational dancers or teachers. These students participate in examinations and are considered at a highly advanced level in their dance journey.
The school's Performance Awards follow a similar format to the Level exams, with a greater emphasis on the “performance” quality presented. Students receive a trophy and a report for their achievements. The Presentation Day, held in September, is a special event where students receive certificates, medals, and trophies earned through their participation in exams and medal and trophy tests.
Helene Gowers Ballet Schools also offers the convenience of online enrolments. New students can reach out to Miss Gowers through email at hgballet@hotmail. Com. Miss Gowers is more than happy to assist parents in selecting the most suitable class for their child.
