Looking for ballet classes


Louie2015

Recommended Posts

I?m very happy with Theatre Peckham. Their ballet department is very strong and they have a ballet company in residence (Ballet Soul). They offer ISTD exams. The studios are new and purpose built.


There?s a lot of emphasis on good technique, stretching and mastery of the basics. Also very important (to me, at least) they are inclusive and welcoming of all body shapes, abilities and needs. Another thing I like is the absence of pink!

My daughters have been going here for more than ten years. Miss Megan the pricipal has been teaching them almost from the very beginning. Think she must only have been about twenty one when she started teaching as she is still only in her thirties. Classes take place predominantly within Harris Girls shcool at the top of Peckham Rye park on Tuesdays/Fridays and Satrudays depending on grade. she does exams and a show every couple of years. Great fun. My eldest has a distinction at grade 8 and she does graded and vocational for the really talented kids. she has had ones go on to white lodge but she is also catering for all shapes and sixes and makes it really great fun. My kids have made freidnships at three that they still have now and small group of them have been doing ballet together for thirteen years!

    • Miss Robson is the last of the old school independent vets. All the chains are have seriously hiked their prices over the last few years which now makes pet ownership only possible for the wealthy few. Even with pet insurance -( which often excludes items or has ‘deductibles’ ) it is just so much money. A visit with some medication is often £150 - £200. The vets themselves are excellent. 
    • Awful. A Google search came up with this, but will he check his office email over Christmas? Maybe worth also contacting local councillor? 'To contact Southern Housing's CEO, Paul Hackett, you can try his direct email, [email protected], or use the general contact email [email protected], as well as calling their main number, 0300 303 1066, for general inquiries or to be directed to the executive level.' Also, from the website: https://www.southernhousing.org.uk/latest-news/2025/contacting-us-over-the-festive-period   'Contacting us about an emergency? If you have an emergency outside of the above times over the festive period, such as severe flooding, an uncontainable leak, gas leak, complete electrical failure or lift breakdown, please call us on 0300 303 1066' I hope it is sorted out soon.
    • Dawson Heights again  2 lifts out of order at ladlands block Christmas Eve so of course the 🛗 will not be repaired tomorrow Christmas Day or Boxing Day or when how do elderly or mothers with children and prams and food and presents get to the floors and with the 10 minutes you get to drop off  to park and not get a Pcn fine and delivery food to relatives who can’t leave their house unbelievable Southern housing does any know email address of Coe of southern housing 
    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
