Venue

Dance Forward is delighted to announce it will have exclusive use of the amazing headquarters of English National Ballet which is on the doorstep of the famous Royal Albert Hall, Kensington, in central London.

The venue has all the professional facilities you would expect at English National Ballet's headquarters… the UK's top touring company!

ENB Door 2Studio 1

There are two large studios with mirrors, barres, piano and, most importantly, a sprung dance floor to match.  Dancers will enjoy the space to extend themselves whether it is jumping to new heights in a Grand Allegro or devouring the expansive space in a jazz, tap, funk or hip hop routine.

Green Room 1Green Room 2

The venue has space to relax your muscles between classes whether it is in the dancers' Green Room or in the stretching area over looking studio 2.  There is also a coffee/tea room with tables and chairs where a light lunch will be served as part of course fees.

Professional CRB checked carers and dance teachers will be at hand to look after the dancers whilst resting between classes.  Once parents drop off their son or daughter at the venue they can rest assured that they will be in safe hands if they want to explore the sights of central London.  There are limited spaces for parents or teachers to observe classes by the day on a first come first serve basis - see booking page for details.

The venue is well serviced by buses and the tube is within walking distance at South Kensington and High Street Kensington.

Why not treat the rest of the family to a day of culture too, with the Natural History Museum, Science Museum and V&A just minutes away by foot.

Let's be honest, central London hotels are not cheap so if you are on a budget and looking for accommodation then looking at hotels on the outskirts might be an option, with the extensive tube and mainline trains servicing the city centre.  Visit laterooms.com to see the latest hotel deals online!

Remember classes will start at 10am to give you time to travel into the city centre!

I spent the weekend in Porto, Portugal as a jury member of International Ballet Competition. I gave a Dance Forward Scholarship to two talented male dancers - Fransisco and Rodriguez. Portugal certainly has talented dancers!
