Intensive Courses on Demand: train with The Royal Ballet School, anytime, anywhere
We’re always working to increase global access to our world-class teaching. We get so much joy from bringing our masterclasses to locations across Europe, Hong Kong, Korea, and Brazil among other places, and we have been developing new ways to expand our reach to ballet students who we can’t reach in person.
We’re therefore thrilled to launch a new on Demand platform that makes our teaching available to all dance students, wherever they are, for the first time.
It’s important to us that the classes are affordable: from as little as £10 per class, the user has lifetime ownership. The courses are tailored to developmental age groups: 11-13-year-olds, 14-15-year-olds and 16+, the same as our full-time training programmes.

Support us
The Royal Ballet School is a charity and as such relies on the generosity of individuals, companies, trusts and foundations to continue to be able to provide world class training and opportunities for students.
