When it comes to early childhood activities, finding the right balance between fun, learning, and development is key. At the Elite Dancers Academy, we believe in providing a nurturing environment that fosters a love for dance while supporting the physical, cognitive, and emotional growth of young children. Our baby ballet classes in Wimbledon, Chiswick, and Streatham are designed to do just that, offering the perfect introduction to the world of ballet for your little ones.
‘Little Rubies’: A Magical Start to Ballet
Our ‘Little Rubies’ Baby Ballet class is more than just an introduction to dance; it’s a shared experience that parents and children can enjoy together. In this parent-assisted class, we focus on building your child’s coordination, body strength, musicality, and imagination—all essential elements for their overall development. By participating alongside your child, you’re not just a spectator; you’re an active part of their learning journey.
The presence of a parent in the class provides a comforting and supportive environment for the child, helping them gain confidence and fully enjoy the experience. The bond you create through dance will not only enhance their enjoyment but also instill a sense of security that encourages them to explore new movements and ideas. This bonding experience becomes the foundation upon which their love for dance is built, making our parent-assisted ballet classes in Wimbledon a favorite among families.
‘Melody Bear’: Progressing with Confidence
As your child grows, so does their ability to take on new challenges. The ‘Melody Bear’ Toddler Ballet class is designed for children aged 2.5 years and above and serves as a natural progression from the ‘Little Rubies’ class. By this stage, children have already started developing the muscle memory needed for basic ballet movements. In ‘Melody Bear,’ these movements are expanded into longer, more challenging sequences that continue to build their coordination, strength, and musicality.
Our toddler ballet classes in Wimbledon and Chiswick also introduce elements of creativity and expression, allowing children to explore their artistic side while continuing to develop their technical skills. This progression ensures that each child is prepared to transition smoothly into more advanced ballet training as they grow older.

A Nurturing Environment for Every Child
What sets our baby dance classes in Streatham apart from other schools is our commitment to focusing on each individual child. Our experienced teachers design every class with the goal of helping each child realise their full dance potential while fostering a genuine love for ballet. This personalised approach has made our classes the most popular in all the areas we serve, and we’re proud to have created a nurturing environment where every child can thrive.
Building Towards a Bright Future in Ballet
At the Elite Dancers Academy, our baby ballet classes in Wimbledon, Chiswick and Streatham are more than just introductory sessions—they are the first steps in a carefully crafted progression that leads towards the prestigious RAD (Royal Academy of Dance) ballet syllabus. As children advance from ‘Little Rubies’ to ‘Melody Bear’ and beyond, they are continuously building a solid foundation in classical technique, musicality, and artistry.
The RAD syllabus is known for its comprehensive approach, guiding students from age four through to professional levels. By starting your child’s dance journey with us, you’re setting them up for success in the world of ballet, whether they pursue it as a lifelong passion or simply enjoy the many benefits of dance.
Starting ballet at a young age offers numerous benefits, from physical development to emotional growth and creative expression. At the Elite Dancers Academy, our ‘Little Rubies’ and ‘Melody Bear’ classes provide the perfect introduction to ballet, creating a positive and enriching experience for both children and parents. We invite you to join us in nurturing your child’s love for dance and helping them take their first steps towards a bright and beautiful future in ballet through our children’s dance classes in Wimbledon, Chiswick, and Streatham.
