Like cultivating a flower,
we take great care to develop a beautiful dancer,
and with that in mind “The Ballet Garden” got its name.
As well as strengthening your child’s body, ballet will allow your child to develop a graceful posture,
build determination and appreciate the fine art and beauty of dancing.
“Growing up healthily, acquiring grace and elegance, or appearing on stage.”
We respect these goals and each student's gift.
The renown Royal Ballet Great Britain is based on the Cecchetti Method:
teaching is based on a proven method that will help your child develop and build confidence,
discipline, co-ordination, and concentration ability. These vital skills will be useful not only for ballet but
also for other dance forms and performing arts as well as success in life.
We would also recommend our students to enter the examinations assessed by qualified examiners from Great Britain.
Challenging examinations will make them progress according to internationally recognized standards.
We welcome you to The Ballet Garden and look forward to seeing you.

We request all students go through a "Class Level Audition" at the time of the trial lesson. Our teachers will then be pleased to recommend the appropriate level for your child. In Japan, the school year starts in April and levels are determined according to age, but for our school the level will be decided by recommendation of our staff.
