Ballet Malvern Parents comments:
We have been so pleased with our decision to move to Ballet Malvern. The teachers are all brilliant and there is a great range of dance genres on offer for students. All students are valued and supported with their individual dreams and pathways - there is a variety of support on offer from private coaching to audition preparation. All students have performance opportunities and the atmosphere backstage is lovely to see, with older students taking care of and encouraging the younger ones, giving the school a real family feel. We think that the Sunday Associates programme and the opportunity to perform in a ballet choreographed by Miss Rebecca once a year really give the school something unique, setting it apart from other schools in area.Helen Cain
Enrolling our daughter at Ballet Malvern has been one of the best decisions we've ever made. The growth we've seen in her goes far beyond dance. Her confidence has soared, and she now truly believes in herself—not only in dance but in all areas of her life, including school.
We've watched her fly—physically and emotionally. It’s been amazing to see her set goals and chase them with passion and belief.
The teachers support each child with kindness and dedication, encouraging them to push boundaries while feeling supported and seen. We are so grateful we have such a brilliant dance school on our doorstep! Zoe Starkey
Ballet Malvern has been a firm part of our lives for the last 7 years. The opportunities offered are wide and varied across numerous dance
and performance genres and the tuition my daughter receives is of a consistently high standard from fantastic nurturing teachers. It is a pleasure to see her development as she progresses through
the grades when invited to watch her perform within the ballet school. It is not that alone though that makes such an impact. The classes really help with overall focus, concentration and self
confidence. Participation in numerous productions both whole school and smaller more nuanced shows has offered challenges and rewards that have been fabulous boosts to personal development. The
atmosphere backstage is something my daughter loves just as much as performing in the shows. At Ballet Malvern she is part of a family where she has formed unbreakable friendships and a lifelong
enjoyment of participation in performing arts.

Ballet Malvern is a gem of a dancing school. In addition to loving every moment of the classes and shows, my daughter has made such progress since starting ballet, both in terms of her confidence performing and her musicality, rhythm and physical control. Performing in the whole school shows at such a young age provides the most amazing opportunity and really showcases not only the talent and professionalism of the dancers in the school, but also the school’s wonderful family environment where the older children show real kindness and care towards the little ones. The individual attention they also give during weekly classes is a real strength of Ballet Malvern, as pupils get almost individual tuition. I’m so pleased we chose Ballet Malvern! Polly Leonard
"Ballet Malvern is a place where we can immerse ourselves in what we love. Miss Rebecca and the team help us to be our best in a caring way and teach us about dances and positions so we understand how our bodies should move.It is lovely to be part of the shows with the bigger girls. We get to dance alongside them and feel like 'grown up' ballerinas.Our favourite show was Giselle as it told an emotional story and the dancing was beautiful." Tilly and Eleanor
Our daughter has been attending Ballet Malvern for just over two years. She
started as a Little Swan. We loved going to the lessons and dancing together and now she attends the lessons by herself. She loves to dance and is always showing off her moves at
home. She has been anxious to perform in front of others but Miss Rebecca has been building her confidence week by week. We love watching week when we get to see her shine! The
performances are absolutely incredible. We were all in awe of the children and the choreography. Laura Gill

"Wonderful dance school! My girls love their lessons and look forward to them every week!"
- Stephanie Grimmett
"I contacted Miss Rebecca when my daughter started to get bored of dance, which left a huge lump in my throat. When your child is talented at an early age and it is recognised, well I don't need to tell you how you would feel. Miss Rebecca is a wonderful woman. She has helped my daughter find her passion in dance again. I saw this at the show at the weekend. What a great performance. Well done to all!"
- Diann Dowell
"Brilliant dance school, highly recommended."
"My daughter was about to give up on ballet as at her old dance school she wasn't building confidence in herself or dance. So I said give another dance school ago, so she applied for ballet malvern centre of dance and I'm so glad she did, they are all so friendly, plus Zoe has never said once about giving up as she love's it there and has learnt so much it has made her become so confident in her dance and as a person. Plus she loves miss Rebecca and miss Victoria as they are so kind and friendly x"

"My daughter has been desperately wanting to dance for a long time but just never seemed to have the confidence to just go for it, we heard about Miss Rebecca & have never looked back! It has been truely amazing watching my daughter's confidence grow with something she loves doing, she even took part in the most amazing show of Alice in wonderland which was absolutely fantastic! Would highly recommend miss Rebecca, a great teacher."
- Keely Harris
"My daughter has been at Ballet Malvern ever since it opened and loves every lesson. Miss Rebecca is a fantastic teacher with a wealth of performance knowledge. Plus she makes it fun. At Christmas, they did a production of Alice in Wonderland and it was AMAZING. Every child had a part, whether they are in pre-primary or grade 5. It was lovely to see the various ages up on stage. I would highly recommend this school."
- Kerry Cushing
"Such a wonderful Alice production by all of the ballet malvern pupils, we got to see just how much hard work goes into each and every lesson!"
- Hannah Parker
"Miss Rebecca, as the children call her is a fantastic teacher my daughter has been at Ballet malvern for almost two years now and thinks the world of everyone involved in teaching her, and my youngest daughter has recently started attending Little Swans which is a fun class for toddlers. Ballet malvern has a unique way of teaching the children, the lessons are fun and engaging and each child is valued as an individual you can see that great thought and care is put into every word spoken to the children. Alice in Wonderland was a fantastic show, with great effort from all at Ballet malvern not only to put on a great show but to keep costs to a minimum to parents so all children could have the chance to dance. I would say ballet Malvern is setting the standard for how a dance school should be done, you cant go wrong sending your child here."
- Claire McNally
"Thank you for what you have done for the girls, its really great for them to have this opportunity."

"My favourite thing about Ballet Malvern is the family that I am a part of!"
"Thank you for all the hard work and dedication that went into this years production. It was absolutely superb. It would be very hard for me to identify my favourite dance because the quality of the dancing and the choreography was consistent through the whole show. I thought that the set was the best one that Ballet Malvern has created. I remember the last production of Peter Pan quite clearly and this production was superior to it, on so many levels. You should all be very proud."
