Our classes are led by experienced teachers who specialise in early childhood dance education. Every toddler ballet session is filled with smiles, music, and encouragement. We focus on building confidence, listening skills, musicality, and coordination—all essential foundations for both dance and life.
Many parents look for beginner ballet classes that are not only fun but also enriching and developmental. At Dakodas, we go beyond just cute tutus and pointed toes. We help children discover how their bodies move, how to express themselves through dance, and how to connect with others in a kind and respectful environment.
Whether your child is curious, shy, energetic, or somewhere in between, our classes adapt to suit every personality. Each little dancer is celebrated for who they are, and we take great care to make sure every child feels safe, seen, and supported.
Our programme is rooted in the RAD (Royal Academy of Dance) syllabus, giving parents peace of mind that they are receiving high-quality instruction while still keeping things magical and fun. From the first plié to their first performance, we’re with your child every step (and twirl) of the way.
