A little more time for ballet
Returning to ballet after many years away?
Or perhaps you're already taking classes and would love a little more time to work on your technique?
Our Let's Dance Days return for 2027, with Hannah Collier leading a day dedicated to developing technique, building confidence and enjoying the pleasure of ballet.
Designed for Beginner Plus adult dancers with some previous ballet experience, this is an opportunity to revisit the fundamentals, understand movement and develop greater confidence in a small, supportive group.
Whether you're rediscovering ballet or building on your current classes, the day is all about learning, improving and enjoying your dancing.
Meet your teacher
Hannah Collier
Hannah is a certified Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) instructor, ballet teacher and chartered physiotherapist. Working across both the NHS and private practice, she specialises in dancer health, rehabilitation and strength training, alongside teaching her own adult ballet fitness classes.

At our retreats, she leads ballet classes, PBT sessions and restorative stretch classes, helping every dancer develop stronger technique while feeling their very best.
Wake up the muscles, refine the technique
The day begins with Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT), activating the muscles we use in ballet and developing awareness of placement, alignment and coordination.
We'll then move into classical ballet technique, working on posture, balance, port de bras and musicality.
Hannah will introduce simple linking steps and manageable combinations, helping you connect movements with greater confidence and fluidity.
The emphasis throughout will be on good technique, clear explanations and the pleasure of learning, rather than complicated choreography.

Who is this day for?
This Dance Day is designed for Beginner Plus adult dancers, including those returning to ballet after many years away.
Perhaps you danced as a child and would love to rediscover ballet, or perhaps you're currently taking classes and would welcome the opportunity to strengthen your technique and build confidence.
Some previous ballet experience is essential, along with a reasonable level of fitness and the ability to participate comfortably in a full day of dance.
You don't need to be attending regular ballet classes, but you should be physically active and have some familiarity with basic ballet movements.
This isn't a day for complete beginners. It's an opportunity to revisit the fundamentals, refresh your technique and rediscover the pleasure of dancing.
The let’s dance experience
Held in our beautiful private studio in Weybourne, our Dance Days offer small classes, individual attention and a relaxed, encouraging atmosphere.
With a maximum of just eight dancers, Hannah will have time to offer individual coaching and encouragement throughout the day.
Alongside the dancing, we'll enjoy a delicious vegetarian lunch and the opportunity to spend time with others who share a love of ballet.
