All you need is an interest, however big or small, in this beautiful style of dance. We know that lots of newbies feel intimidated by ballet, but we can guarantee that you will fall in love with it, just as all our members have. With the amazing support from our incredible teacher Stacey, and lovely committee members who are always more than happy to offer advice or support, classes with USD Ballet are sure to become your favourite place to be.Our classes run on Tuesday evenings in the MPS (Multi-Purpose Studio, Student’s Union building) at the following times:🩰 5:00-6:15pm Beginners/Improvers🩰 6:15-7:30pm Intermediate🩰 7:30-9:00pm Advanced🩰 9:00-9:45pm PointeWe can confidently say that whilst we put on high quality classes for you to improve and develop as a dancer, our main aim is to have fun enjoy the escapism of dance.

Both squads have an amazing history of success at competitions!🏆We also participate in the university’s annual dance show, Pure Dance - this is a brilliant performance opportunity open to the whole of Ballet, alongside the rest of the USD dance societies🎉As a society, we love dressing up and often have themed classes, namely Christmas and Halloween!
