PROFESSIONALISM, COURTESY & RESPECT

Producing Internationally Successful Ballet Dancers

Led by renowned Directors, Lynsey and Simon Kidd, our aim is to instil professional values within our students, by teaching etiquette, decorum and respect for the studio, the art form, the teachers and peers. These qualities implement professionalism, courtesy and respect for oneself.

Moorland International Ballet Academy encourages self-discovery and nurtures the development of each student’s unique artistic qualities. Students thrive on the positive and inspiring atmosphere created by the motivated faculty who value the importance of confidence and happiness. From classical training and modern dance to conditioning, choreography, and dramatic training, our multi-faceted approach helps our students reach new heights and pursue careers in the professional world of ballet.
