Welcome to babyballet

Crawley & Horsham

Hi! I’m Miss Sophie and I’m delighted to bring the magic of babyballet dance classes to the children of Crawley, Horsham and East Grinstead.

How to book a babyballet class:

Our babyballet class timetable is listed below, where you can book a three-week introductory trial for just £20.

The trial is the perfect introduction to babyballet, giving you and your child the chance to try out our ballet classes before signing up to a full term. Where spaces are available, the babyballet trial can start at any time during a term. Upon completion of the trial, you will be invoiced for the remaining sessions.

Which babyballet class should I book

Our preschool dance syllabus has been carefully designed to ensure each child is taught the principles of ballet and tap at the right developmental level while boosting confidence, and of course having lots of fun.

Our programme fits well within the UK Government’s Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, with our classes providing the opportunity for babies and young children to learn and develop key life skills in a healthy and safe environment.

When signing your child up for a three-week trial, you will need to ensure they are within the age parameters outlined for each stage. If in doubt, please start in the lower age group to begin with as your teacher will liaise with you should your child need to move up a stage.

After registering, you will be sent an enrolment email full of information that will let you know what to expect. Please allow up to 48 hours to receive this email and double check your junk or spam folder!

Becoming a babyballet member

Following the introductory trial, you will receive an email containing all the details you need to continue with our classes and become a babyballet member. Along with term dates and information about how to make future payments to secure your place, you will be sent an invoice for the remaining weeks in the current term plus your one-off babyballet joining fee. Your little star will receive a Welcome Pack filled with fun and benefits for both you and them to enjoy.

Our fees are £7.50 per class for babyballet tots, tinies, movers and groovers, payable either in full term blocks in advance or via monthly direct debit. There is no need to sign up via the website again.

Meet the franchisee

Miss Sophie – Franchisee and teacher

babyballet Crawley East

I have been a part of the dance world since the age of three. Starting ballet at my local dance school in North Wales, I then moved to London and spent three years training at the prestigious Laine Theatre Arts where I was awarded a Further Education Diploma in Musical Theatre and Dance.
After graduating I performed in shows on cruise ships where I travelled across the world. Additionally, I have performed on an annual basis as dance captain and part of the ensemble in pantomimes all over the UK. I am also part of one of the U.K’s leading professional dance and cheerleading teams, where I have performed at stadium’s including Twickenham and the 02 Arena, as well as TV appearances on Sky Sports and GMB! 
I discovered my passion for teaching pre-school children when I joined babyballet Epsom in Surrey. After a few years it was time to take the leap and bring babyballet to Crawley where I can spread the joy and magic of dance to lots of new babyballet stars!

“My daughter Serena attends the babyballet Brighton and West Hove Movers class with Miss Lucy. We are only part way through the first term and I’m already wishing she’d started sooner! babyballet is exactly what I was looking for. Miss Lucy’s positive, fun approach makes the classes both accessible and rewarding. The mix of familiar songs and babyballet favourites totally caught Serena’s imagination from the beginning!”
