Now in our 28th Year, Boswell Dance continues its excellence, providing fine training to dancers in Classical Ballet, Jazz, Lyrical, Tap, Stage, Modern, Acro and Hip Hop, with the main focus on ballet as it is the basis of all dance. The ballet curriculum follows the syllabi of the Royal Academy of Dance, with yearly examinations for Grade 1 – Advanced 2.

It is our aim to encourage and help each student in doing their very best and to achieve their goals, to develop poise, confidence, discipline as well as a love for the art of dance.
