This ballet class with former Royal Academy of Dance Artistic Director Gerard Charles builds on skills from previous sessions, introducing new movements with a special focus on breath. Learning to breathe well is fundamental to ballet – it shapes how you move, how you hold yourself and how gracefully you flow from one position to the next.
All you need is comfortable clothing, a clear space to move in, and you'll be gently guided through everything at your own pace.
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.
