ISTD Ballet, Tap & Modern Combined Classes

A perfect and economical way to build a strong foundation across all our dance genres before choosing to specialise at senior class level. These classes, for girls and boys, are based on the ISTD Ballet, Modern and Tap examination syllabi, with lots of imaginative fun in the lower grades. The course builds gradually, ensuring steps learned at lower levels prepare dancers for more complex movements. Examinations are encouraged but are not compulsory.
ISTD Ballet

Classical Ballet is a highly technical form of dance which requires years of training to master. Whether learning ballet for fun or as a potential career, a strong foundation in Ballet makes for highly skilled dancers in other dance genres.
The ISTD Ballet syllabus promotes a sound basic technique along with an understanding of musical interpretation, providing the essentials of pure classical training.
We teach the fundamentals of ballet technique through structured, positive and fun lessons, nurturing a passion of dance forever.

Modern Dance is often seen on the stages of musical productions and is known for its theatrical qualities.
The ISTD Modern syllabus includes Jazz, Lyrical and Musical Theatre enabling the dancer to show their personality and style.
The genre uses travelling steps, kicks, leaps and turns which all need good technique, strength and flexibility.
ISTD Tap

Tap Dance is an exciting, percussive, rhythmical dance form. Taught using a diverse selection of music, it links in perfectly with all the other genres and really helps with musicality. The ISTD Tap syllabus captures the American Tap style and is an exciting new syllabus which encourages good solid tap technique. Tap dance is a theatrical art form often seen on screen and stage in musicals
“My daughter Belle has been attending Caroline Graham School of Dancing for 3 years and from the very first lesson, Caroline has shown her dedication and commitment to Belle’s journey as a dancer. Progress has been significant as she only started ballet aged 12, yet on Caroline’s suggestion, she auditioned for the English Youth Ballet after just over a year’s lessons and was successful.”
