Step Into the World of RAD Ballet at Spotlight
Ballet is more than just a dance style, it’s the heart of all dance. At Spotlight &. JC we believe ballet builds the grace, strength, and technique that every dancer needs to thrive in any genre. From posture and flexibility to self-discipline and confidence, ballet lays the foundation for a lifetime of movement.
Why Choose RAD Ballet?
Spotlight proudly follows the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) syllabus, one of the world’s most respected dance training systems. The RAD offers a clear, inspiring pathway for dancers of all ages and abilities, with internationally recognised exams that celebrate progress every step of the way.
A Journey of Growth and Achievement
Dancers begin with Pre-Primary and Primary levels, then progress through:
- 8 Graded Levels
- 6 Vocational Graded Levels
Whether your child is dancing for fun or aiming for a professional path, they can move through the RAD levels at their own pace. Some students focus on one track, while others choose to study both Graded and Vocational levels side by side.
Classes for All Ages and Stages
- RAD Ballet classes available from age 3
- Exams offered from Primary to Advanced 1 (based on readiness)
- Many students combine RAD training with other styles for a well-rounded dance education
Focused Coaching for Exam Success
To help our dancers shine in their RAD exams, we offer special coaching classes before the examination date. These sessions are led by expert faculty including:
- Erna Kuenen – Spotlight & JC Director & RAD Examiner
- Ellie Franklin – Spotlight & JC Director
