If you've always had a passion for ballet or are just curious about exploring this beautiful art form, the Melbourne Studio of Ballet is the place to be. Located in Thornbury, this ballet club is dedicated to nurturing the art and technique of ballet.
Established in January 2017, the Melbourne Studio of Ballet has quickly become a go-to destination for ballet enthusiasts of all ages. From four-year-olds to adults, they offer classes tailored to suit everyone's needs. And what sets them apart is their adherence to the esteemed Russian Vaganova Method of Classical Ballet, recognised worldwide as the leading training method for classical ballet.
When it comes to children's ballet classes, the Melbourne Studio of Ballet follows the Ballet Conservatoire Syllabus, a Vaganova-based training program. This means that students not only learn the technicalities of ballet but also focus on correct placement, dynamics, discipline, and performance quality. These elements are vital in mastering the Vaganova method and becoming a truly accomplished ballet dancer.
But the learning doesn't stop at classical ballet. Students at the Melbourne Studio of Ballet also have the opportunity to explore other dance forms such as repertoire, character, and contemporary dance. Whether you're interested in participating in annual examinations, solo preparations for competitions, mid-year performances, or end-of-year theatre performances, the studio offers it all.
What truly sets the Melbourne Studio of Ballet apart is their commitment to providing individual attention to each student's ballet technique. To ensure safe development and personalised instruction, the children's classes are capped. And the studio itself creates the perfect environment for dance. With spacious layouts, plenty of natural light, and fully equipped with sprung tarkett dance flooring, barres, and mirrors, it's a dream space for any aspiring ballet dancer.
As an added bonus, the Melbourne Studio of Ballet also partners with Dancebourne Arts, a professional dance company. This collaboration opens up doors to exciting performance opportunities and activities for the students.
