✨ A very special congratulations to Verity! ✨

We’re so proud to share that Verity has been offered a place on The Royal Ballet School’s Online Classes, as well as being placed on the short waiting list for their face-to-face classes.

Such a brilliant achievement and a lovely recognition of all the hard work, commitment and passion she puts into her ballet training.

We are incredibly proud of you, Verity, and can’t wait to see where this next opportunity takes you. 🤍

🩰 Congratulations Verity!

Quick September update…

A few of our classes are now almost full, and RAD Grade 1 Ballet is completely booked.

We do still have spaces in some of our other classes, particularly across our younger age groups, so if you’ve been thinking about joining us in September now is a good time to get in touch or book a trial.

I’ll pop some more specific class availability up over the next few days so you can see where we still have room.

Massive congratulations to Ellis on successfully auditioning and accepting a place at The Hammond on their Acting and Musical Theatre Course! 🌟

We're so proud of you and everything you've achieved.

The best part? Ellis will be continuing his dance training with us at SGDA alongside his studies at The Hammond, so we can't wait to keep supporting him on his journey.

Congratulations, Ellis. Here's to an exciting next chapter! 💙

Huge congratulations to Zara on successfully auditioning for English Youth Ballet and being offered a place to perform in Swan Lake! 🦢

This was such a fantastic achievement and we're incredibly proud of her.

Although Zara made the difficult decision not to accept the place because she had already committed to performing in Fifteen, it says so much about her character and loyalty to her peers.

Well done, Zara. We are very proud of you.✨

We're so excited to share that Lucy has been offered a place on the 3 Year Professional Diploma in Musical Theatre at The Hammond! 🌟

Lucy joined us before Christmas to strengthen her dance technique in preparation for her auditions, and we're absolutely delighted to see all of her hard work pay off.

A huge congratulations, Lucy. Thank you for letting us be part of your journey, and we wish you every success for the exciting years ahead! 💙✨

A massive congratulations to Willow, who has completed her two years as a Royal Ballet Junior Associate and has now been offered a place as a Mid Associate from September.

Watching dancers move through the Associate Programme is always really special. It isn’t just about talent, it’s about turning up month after month, putting the work in, taking corrections, growing in confidence and never losing that love of dancing.

Willow, this opportunity has been earned through your hard work and commitment over the last two years. We couldn’t be prouder of everything you’ve achieved, and we can’t wait to see you take on this next chapter.

Congratulations, Willow. Your SGDA family is cheering you on every step of the way. 🩰🤍

✨ Congratulations, Florence! ✨

I am so, so pleased to share that Florence has been offered a place on the inaugural cohort of Birmingham Royal Ballet’s Next Gen Associates Programme for 2026/27.

What makes this even more special is that Florence will be part of the very first group of young dancers to experience this brand new programme. It’s an incredible opportunity and one she should be so proud of.

One of my favourite things about Florence is that she just quietly gets on with it. She works hard, takes everything on board and is always looking to improve. Watching opportunities like this come her way is such a lovely reminder that hard work really does pay off.

Florence, I hope you absolutely love every minute of it. Throw yourself into every class, enjoy every experience and make lots of memories along the way.

We’re all so proud of you and can’t wait to follow your journey over the next year. 🤍

✨ Congratulations, Sorayah! ✨

We’re so excited to share that Sorayah has been offered a place on the Royal Ballet School Junior Online Associate Programme, and has also been placed on the short waiting list for the Junior Associate Programme.

Anyone who has been through the associate audition process knows just how competitive it is, so this is a fantastic achievement and something to be incredibly proud of.

Sorayah has worked so hard, stayed determined and continued to grow with every opportunity she’s been given. It’s been such a pleasure to watch her develop, and we’re so pleased to see that hard work being recognised.

Sorayah, we couldn’t be prouder of you. Enjoy every moment of your Online Associate training, and we’ll be keeping everything crossed for some good news from the face to face Associate Programme too. Whatever happens, this is an achievement worth celebrating.

Well done from everyone at SGDA.
