New Early Years Ballet Classes in Redhill

We're excited to announce new early years ballet classes for toddlers aged 18months to 4 year olds will be  starting in Redhill on Tuesday 14 January 2020.

On Tuesday mornings, East Surrey Dance will be bringing their two popular early years classes to Infinity - Space to Grow, Ifold Road Earlswood. The classes are taught by Hannah Robinson, a local mum who has trained at the Royal Academy of Dance.

Classes include:


  • 9.15am-10am: Pre-School Ballet (3-4 years). An introduction to ballet using imagination, props and movement that begins to prepare little ones for the Royal Academy of Dance syllabus
  • 10.15am-11am: Swans and Cygnets (18 months - 3 years). Musical and creative, this parent and toddler group is a fun first experience of dance for boys and girls.

Please also join us for a chat and a cuppa for 10 minutes before each class begins!

Are you looking for a new class to expand your little one's imagination, introduce them to the world of music and movement and dance off some of their energy for this new year? 

Enquire today about joining us on Tuesday 14 January for a free trial class.

Classes Cancelled Thursday 1st March

I am sorry to let you know that after much thought I have decided to cancel classes today, Thursday 1st March, due to the weather.

As the car park is not gritted and the heating still not fully working at the hall I am concerned for the safety of the children, families and teachers particularly with those who travel far and attend the later evening classes.  I understand that most schools in the area are closed until Monday now as well so think that not many of you would have managed it either.

I plan to run a 'make up' day on at the end of the summer term, Thursday 12th July.  It isn't possible to fit in one this term.

All classes should try to attend Woldingham this Saturday, 3rd March, (apart from Swans and Cygnets) to ensure the show is still rehearsed.  With the weather forecast tomorrow, I will evaluate Friday afternoon/evening if I have to cancel Saturday too.  This is not something I will do lightly.

Please do check your emails and our Facebook pages for further updates.  I will try to get this message to everyone but do pass onto anyone you share lifts with etc.

Hoping everyone keeps warm and safe,
