Dulwich Ballet School was established by Principal Sally-Ann Hodge and operates from multiple venues in the Dulwich and Herne Hill areas of South East London. The school teaches ballet, tap, modern, and contemporary dance to over 400 students. Ballet classes follow the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus, while tap and modern classes use the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing curriculum.
Classes are available for children from age 3, starting with Introductory Ballet for ages 2.8–4.3 years and progressing through graded levels. The school offers RAD ballet grades and vocational training by invitation, including Pre-Vocational, Intermediate, and Advanced levels. Tap classes range from Pre-Primary through Grade 6, and modern classes combine musical theatre, jazz, and lyrical dance. Additional offerings include pointe work for students aged 11.5 and above, contemporary dance, body conditioning, and adult ballet.
Students may enter RAD and ISTD examinations according to their ability. The school presents bi-annual productions at a local theatre, which have included classical ballets. All teachers hold relevant qualifications and valid DBS checks. New students may attend a free taster class and join mid-term.
