We're warming up
We're taking a short pause while Ballet With Isabella steps into something new. Same world-class training. A bigger mission behind it. This next chapter is about more than ballet. It's about how you train, and how you show up – in and out of the studio.
We'll be back soon. In the meantime... keep it moving
- 32 calf rises each leg! – keep it slow and controlled
- 30 glute bridges – lengthen through the floor
- 1 minute plank - embrace the shakes!
- 4 x 30 second balances in retiré each side – if you fall, we start from the top!
- Practice your pirouettes from 5th and 4th each side. Try each turn until you feel 1 percent progress
- An arabesque each side – master it, and make it clean
- 1 minute butterfly stretch – breathe, don’t force, keep your back long and actively push the knees out
Where serious technique and the joy of dancing come together.
The Ballet Lab is back, and this year we are doing something new. For the first time ever, we are splitting into two dedicated age groups – a Junior Lab for dancers aged 10 to 13, and a Senior Lab for dancers aged 14 to 18 – so that every dancer gets the focused, personalised experience they deserve. The Lab is a welcoming space created for young dancers to experiment, grow, and discover what they are truly capable of, without the fear of making mistakes. No big group classes where you can get lost in the crowd. No pressure to perform. Just you, the work, and the breakthroughs that come when you finally get the attention and corrections you need.
About This Group
The Senior Lab is three full days of deep, focused training for dancers who are ready to be challenged at a higher level. This is where you get into the details, the corrections that actually stick, the technique breakthroughs you have been working towards, and the space to grow as both a dancer and an artist.
A Day at the Senior Lab
A Vaganova technique class, technique deep-dives, pointe for those en pointe, repertoire, conditioning, and stretch.
- 3 days of conditioning, technique, repertoire, deep dive, floor barre, and stretch classes
- Welcome kit with some fun surprises
- Access to official photos capturing key moments of your time at the Lab
- Full schedule to be shared ahead of the event.
You'll Love the Senior Lab If
- You are serious about your technique and ready to work hard in a supportive environment
- You want to explore your artistry and push past what your regular training has been able to offer
- You want to be part of a motivated, passionate group of dancers who are all there for the same reason
This May Not Be Right For You If
- You are looking for drop-in classes or a part-time workshop
- You are not interested in focusing on the details of technique
How to Apply
To make sure every dancer is in the right room and gets the most from their time at the Lab, we ask for a short video before your place is confirmed. This is not an audition. It is simply so we can understand your current level and support you in the best way possible.
