Welcome to Ashtead Ballet School, established in 2009 by Maxine Simpson, LRAD, AISTD, RAD Registered Teacher. Our ethos is to instil a love and enjoyment of dance in our students. We strongly believe that dancing promotes self-confidence as well as developing musicality, strong physique, co-ordination and grace. As well as having the chance to succeed in exams with recognised training bodies and to perform in our whole school productions, we hope that our students will learn to love dance for its own sake, becoming not just the dancers, but the audiences of the future.
