We are excited to announce that we’re joining the Let’s Dance! campaign on Sunday 2nd March 2025, by hosting a RAD Silver Swans morning at Elmhurst Ballet School.

Angela’s journey on Strictly Come Dancing highlighted to her the incredible benefits of regular dancing, and now she’s on a mission to get the whole nation dancing. This campaign is all about making dance accessible to everyone, with a focus on encouraging people to embrace the joy and health benefits of dancing.

"It's this that sparked my mission to get the nation dancing, in the hopes of helping more people access the health and social benefits of dance.

So please join us! Let’s come together and make 2025 the year of dance."

- Angela Rippon

Classes will be held in our state of the art studios and taught by RAD Silver Swans qualified staff - Silver Swans Licensees are trained specifically to teach ballet to adults over-55s, but all ages are welcome.

We warmly invite you to join us for this morning of dance, and let's get the nation dancing!

Elmhurst Ballet Company, the graduate year of Elmhurst Ballet School presents Resonance, a bold mixed bill of classical and contemporary dance. The young company have collaborated with established choreographers, dance artists and organisations to bring Resonance to the stage.

The company performs a wide range of repertoire including a brand-new work using AI choreographed by Studio Wayne McGregor artist, Jessica Wright, a new work from Birmingham Royal Ballet Principal dancer, Lachlan Monaghan, and an excerpt from one of the most successful pieces of contemporary ballet from the 1930s Soviet Union, Vakhtang Chabukiani’s Laurencia.

In Resonance, the spectrum of human connection and the interpersonal interactions which shape our worlds are fearlessly explored by Elmhurst Ballet Company. No matter how technology changes, or communication tools develop, it is our physical and emotional resonance to one another, as humans, which endures.
