Autumn term enrolment is now open.

Technique, sharpened

Kicks, Leaps and Turns

A weekly technique class dedicated to pushing your range, elevation and control.

About the class

What kicks, leaps and turns is all about

Kicks, Leaps and Turns is a supplementary technique class that does exactly what it says. One focused hour a week on the tricks that make routines soar: higher extensions, cleaner pirouettes and bigger, safer jumps.

It is the perfect add-on for any dancer wanting to level up quickly, and it is open to our adult dancers too.

What to expect

  • Targeted flexibility and strength conditioning
  • Turn technique: spotting, single, double and beyond
  • Leaps and jumps with safe take off and landing
  • Kick lines and extensions for control and height

Why it matters

What your dancer gains

  • Higher extensions and cleaner turns, fast
  • Bigger, safer jumps and landings
  • Strength and flexibility that transfer to every class
  • A measurable jump in technique across the board

How they progress

A supplementary class where dancers track real, visible progress week to week: more rotations, higher kicks and bigger jumps, all built on safe, sound technique.

The festival team gave my daughter goals to work towards and a group of friends she adores. Watching her perform a solo on stage was a moment I will never forget.
