Ballet4Life Southfield Road, London W4 1BB

"Since in lockdown I have 'attended' Ballet4life's Zoom classes. They provide a range of ballet classes suitable for all levels. They also provide contemporary dance, character class, stretching and toning and yoga. With their packed timetable there are opportunities to take live classes throughout the week. They have even introduced On Demand classes for those who wish to dance at other times. All the tutors are highly skilled and provide fun classes in an encouraging environment. Communication is excellent with emails always being responded to quickly. I highly recommend this company."

"Friendly, attentive teachers in proper dance studios with a proper barre! The beginners & improvers class with Chris is great - he was welcoming when I was new, is an attentive and clear teacher, offering corrections and adjustments so that you can see yourself improving. His sense of humour doesn't hurt either! The class moves at a good pace and there's variety each week to prevent the classes from feeling too repetitive. Parking is available near both venues. Over email, the owner Donna is really helpful with answering queries."

"Ballet4Life is a wonderful organisation! No matter how old and creaky you may be, you'll be welcomed with open arms. Not only is Donna a fabulous teacher, she's also an extremely warm and caring person who takes a real interest in her pupils. Donna's team mirror her ethos and are also patient, non-judgmental, professional and lots of fun! I've learned it's never too late to start to become the dancer you might have been as a child, had you been given the opportunity. I can't think of a more enjoyable way to exercise and I highly recommend Donna, her team and Ballet4Life, to dancers of every and any level. The only thing you've got to lose are your inhibitions!"

"Ballet 4 life has become an integral part of my world it nourishes the body and the soul. The dance programme both in the studio and online is excellent and varied. Classes are for all abilities and ages and extremely friendly and enjoyable. The benefits to health and to self esteem are immeasurable and the community spirit it engenders is so very strong and supportive. It’s great fun and gives you the immense satisfaction of doing something which is beautiful, enriching in a COVID safe environment."

"I have been dancing at ballet4life for over 2 years. It's a great dancing company which has so many classes to choose from, no matter what levels you are on or absolutely beginner. The teachers are very friendly, attentive and supportive. I always look foward to dancing at ballet4life. I would highly recommend ballet4life for people who like dancing or would like to start a new hobby."
