At Greenford School of Dance we offer ballet lessons that follow the syllabi of the Royal Academy of Dance. The Royal Academy is at the forefront of ballet teaching. The syllabi and standards produced from their work are recognized internationally, enabling children to improve behaviour and listening skills and become more effective learners in school.
