Welcome to babyballet

Walton-on-Thames and Esher

Hi! I’m Miss Laura and I’m delighted to bring the magic of babyballet dance classes to the children of Walton-on-Thames and Esher.

How to book a babyballet class:

Our babyballet class timetable is listed below, where you can book a three-week introductory trial for just £24 today.

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 £9.50 per class for babyballet tots, tinies, movers and groovers, payable in half term blocks in advance. Tappers classes are available for movers and groovers starting at £4.00 per week. There is no need to sign up via the website again.

Meet the franchisee

Miss Laura – Franchisee and teacher

Laura_Griffiths_Star_Multi_Coloured_babyballet_Walton_on_Thames

 

.
I am so proud to be the franchise owner of babyballet Walton-on-Thames and to be bringing future classes to Staines and Chessington. I began ballet when I was 3 years old and immediately fell in love with it, completing all my ballet exams including the advanced levels, before I went on to study drama and English at University. Dance has always been a big part of my life, and I have enjoyed performing in some large scale productions such as the opening and closing ceremonies of the London 2012 Olympics!
When I began taking my own children to babyballet classes, I just knew it was something that I wanted to carry on doing. I was an Early Years and Key Stage 1 primary school teacher for 18 years, and this amazing job combines my passion of teaching young children with the wonderful world of ballet. I hope to welcome you and your little star to a class very soon!
