What it is

Ballet is the foundation of so much dance, and it rewards adults beautifully with better posture, poise, strength and a genuine understanding of how you move. At Momenta every class follows the official Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) syllabus and is led by a RAD registered teacher, so you progress through real, structured levels. When you're ready, optional RAD exams give you a goal and lovely recognition for your hard work, though they are never required.

What a session feels like

Classes are small and unhurried. You'll warm up gently, work at the barre to build strength and alignment, then move into the centre for graceful, flowing exercises. Anna corrects with kindness, never pressure, and there is always time to ask a question. Most people are surprised how quickly the hour passes.
