Congratulations to Julia, Zoe, Adelaide and Allegra on sitting their RAD Vocational examinations last week. 🩰🏆

Adelaide (Intermediate) and Allegra (Advanced 1) have trained at Premier since they were toddlers, making it especially rewarding to see them reach this stage of their training.

We also congratulate Julia and Zoe (both Intermediate), who joined Premier this year from Singapore and New Zealand. They arrived with a beautiful foundation, and we would like to acknowledge and thank their previous teachers for the excellent preparation and training they provided.

A lovely achievement for these four dancers and everyone who has supported them along the way.✨

We are incredibly fortunate to have Wim Broeckx as part of our teaching team at Premier Dance 🤍

Wim’s career spans the international stage, including his time as a Principal dancer and Assistant Director with the Dutch National Ballet, and as Artistic Director of the Prix de Lausanne - one of the world’s most prestigious ballet competitions.

With decades of global experience across performance, education, and elite training pathways, Wim brings a level of insight that is invaluable to our students.

His approach is grounded in what genuinely develops dancers - consistent training, strong technical foundations, and steady, informed progression over time. This philosophy strongly aligns with the values that have shaped Premier Dance over the past 30 years.

Whether students aspire to a professional career or simply love to dance alongside their academic journey, his guidance continues to shape confident, capable dancers.

We invite you to read his reflections and insights across this post ✨
