The Senior Programme is Studio One’s highest level of training within the main curriculum. Students aged fourteen to twenty-one work with the technical demands and performance expectations of competitive dancers, while remaining part of a community that continues to make the studio a place worth coming to every week. There are also options for beginner dancers who fall into the 'high school' / Senior Programme age group, and those  without prior experience in the Studio One programmes.  

​​

Across Ballet, Modern, Lyrical, and Acro (with Hip Hop availabe too), Senior students develop the complete range of a serious, versatile dancer: technical precision, artistic range, performance confidence, and the physical conditioning to back all of it up. Exam preparation, stage work, and competition training are all available at this level.

​​

For students who are new to Studio One at Senior level and have prior dance experience elsewhere: speak to us before enrolling. We’ll assess your level and ensure the programme is the right fit.
