Aspirations School of Dance based in Sussex, primarily offers classical ballet training for students from 5 to 19 years old. This is supplemented by a cohesive program of Acrobatic Arts, International Dance Technique, Stretch, Tap, LAMDA, and Musical Theatre together with Anatomy and Russian Language to give the dancers of today the tools they will need to succeed for tomorrow. The school also hosts a comprehensive pre-school dance curriculum for the under-fives that affords a perfect transition into graded classes. Attendance is by audition only. Our program is designed specifically for those students who are seriously considering a professional career in the arts. It is assumed that many will progress onto Vocational Programs, Full-Time Classical Academies, and or Tertiary education Pedagogy Degrees. At thirteen years most students will undertake a three-year teaching assistant qualification which will put them in good stead for whatever path they choose.

Founded in 2011, ASD has its own bespoke studios in Henfield. We are privileged to have alliances with several vocational colleges and a wealth of guest teachers some with direct links to The Vaganova Academy and Bolshoi to supplement our curriculum and give performance opportunities to our students.
