Former Artistic Director of the Royal Academy of Dance, Gerard Charles, brings the joy of ballet straight to your living room. In this gentle introduction to the basics of ballet, Gerard explains why dance is for everyone – regardless of age or experience – and how it can strengthen both body and mind.
Gerard’s key message is simple: everyone can dance. If you respond to music or feel the urge to move, you’re already a dancer.
All you need is some comfortable clothing and a little space to move.
Born in Folkestone, Gerard retired as artistic director of the Royal Academy of Dance in 2023.
A professional dancer, he has choreographed and staged works internationally and served as an artistic director, Ballet Master and education director for some of the world's top ballet companies.
