Kids Ballroom Programme (6–14 yrs)

About this activity

Ballroom and Latin fundamentals for children — posture, rhythm, and partnering skills through waltz, cha-cha, and jive. Builds coordination, discipline, and stage confidence.

What to expect from dance classes

Dance classes in the UAE run 45–75 minutes depending on age and style. Classes follow a structured format: warm-up and stretching, technique work (barre exercises for ballet, isolations for hip-hop), choreography or creative work, and cool-down. Most academies hold an annual performance or recital — a genuine highlight for students and families. Dress codes vary by style: ballet typically requires leotard and soft shoes, while hip-hop and contemporary are more relaxed.

What to look for when choosing a provider
