About This Class

Our Beginner Improver Ballet course provides a fun introduction to ballet. Here students will cover basic ballet principles in a supportive and encouraging environment. Ballet terminology will be explained and demystified. It’s a perfect course for complete beginners & improver dancers.
 
All our ballet classes are for fun, fitness and the love of ballet set in a non-competitive environment. This allows all students to reach their best potential in their own time. 
 
Our 75 minute class covers a short body warm-up, barre work, centre practice, allegro (jumps), pirouettes (turns) and some choreographed phrases. 

About Rebecca

Rebecca O’Brien Taylor started her ballet journey at 3 years of age. Over her 20 years of dancing, her love for ballet grew & she completed all of her ballet grade and vocational level examinations with Distinction.

During this time, Rebecca went on to complete her Ballet Teacher Training in 2008 through the Royal Academy of Dance, London. She fully qualified in 2011 with Distinction and has since worked for one of the largest ballet schools in Ireland, as well as spending many years teaching abroad in renowned ballet schools across the UAE and Australia.
​
Rebecca's love of teaching ballet prompted her to start her own school in 2017, The Dublin City Ballet School for children & adults. Her passion to bring the joy of ballet & dance to children with additional needs, prompted her to continue her studies in the area of special education. In 2018 she travelled to LA to further her expertise in the area of inclusive dance. As a result she now offers “Free 2 Be Me Dance” specialised dance classes for children and teens with additional needs.
