The adult ballet class includes structured exercises, fluid choreography and a welcoming atmosphere with some lovely regulars. I have relished the challenge of the intermediate class- it is a mental as well as a physical workout.

My daughter joined BHDA in Grade 3. I was extremely impressed by the organisation and communication, and she was impressed with the teaching! Miss Victoria is a true professional who cares about each child and wants them to achieve their best. She is very encouraging yet firm, and is always there to correct movements. She explains the correct terminology and offers the pupils a choice of dances and music, so they are not just being told what to do all the time but are invited to input. My daughter was always a good dancer, but she is now a very good dancer, thanks to BHDA!

"My daughter has been attending Ballet classes at Brighton and Hove Dance Academy for over 8 years and has loved every single minute. Her progression from toddler to a beautifully poised budding Ballerina has been wonderful to see and I can't praise Victoria's tuition and the lovely studio highly enough."

Isabella has been dancing with BHDA for over five years. Victoria is professional, motivating and encouraging and has taught Isabella to have a love of ballet.The discipline and commitment Isabella’s learnt through dance has been invaluable and she has applied these skills to her academic studies. Whether she pursues a career in dance or it becomes a hobby, BHDA has given Isabella a love and understanding of the art of ballet.We are confident, Isabella is receiving the best training available and she loves coming to the classes.

From the very first time I spoke to Victoria I was impressed by her attentiveness and professionalism - she takes a genuine interest in each of her pupil's dancing and gives them a great deal of inspiration and encouragement. Even after many hours of teaching Victoria has the energy and enthusiasm to organise theatre trips and workshops that would help pupils to further develop their appreciation of dance and creativity. There is such a wonderful balance of discipline, fun, commitment and an exceptional self confidence in the pupils. My daughter had previously attended 4 different dance schools in Brighton & Hove, and I can honestly say that BHDA is by far the most professional, organised, engaging and inspiring. But beyond the excellent dance teaching that my daughter has been receiving since joining BHDA in Grade 4, it is extremely reassuring to see her confidence and technical skills grow and her passion for dance deepen! Pupils are inspired, challenged and encouraged to achieve their potentials. Parents are kept informed and involved in the progress and events. Whether it is purely dance for fun or working towards achieving a dance grade my daughter and I cannot recommend BHDA highly enough.
