Clare Novaes Ballet School looks towards the future by updating to a better, a bolder, a kinder more blended classical ballet training. Forward-thinking ballet classes provide all the benefits of classical ballet technique with injury prevention, recovery and rehabilitation addressed. Classes embrace the complexities of longevity in the dancer’s career. We encourage the body’s natural desire towards alignment and coordinated movement to create an uninterrupted flow throughout the entire body.
The ballet school has classes for everyone with Expectant Mother, Mother and Baby, Parent and Toddler and Family classes all on the timetable!
These are very exciting developments as well as the school’s expansion to include Contemporary and Musical Theatre with Tap dance classes all available.
The CN Youth Ballet Company has a junior and senior section and there is a new CN Adult Ballet Company.
There are classes for all ages of children and every stage of adulthood.
The Clare Novaes School of Ballet encourages creativity, fundamental movement skills, development of coordination, body alignment and confidence. All classes emphasise correct posture.

Our ballet retreats are the perfect way to relax and reconnect with your physical well-being. Led by Clare Novaes, these unique retreats offer workshops in classical ballet techniques in a stunning rural setting along with delicious seasonal food and refreshments.
The classes are open to adults of all ages whether you have danced before or are completely new to it.
In 2022 we purpose built our own private dance studio. This gives us facilities for adult and bespoke ballet and movement classes. Set in woodland it allows focus on grounding, creativity and wellness in movement.
We will be offering private classes and creating purpose built classes for dancers developing their skills as well as developing special movement classes for actors and performers.
Stay tuned for more information.
