Is your child 9 or 10 years old and interested in ballet?
The Ballet Classes for Children Aged 9 to 10 in Coimbra are designed to deepen both technical skills and artistic expression, while also supporting emotional and physical development at this important stage of childhood.

With greater body awareness and focus, children begin to explore more complex movements, refine their posture, balance, flexibility, and musicality, and learn to express themselves with grace, confidence, and presence.

Each class becomes an opportunity for growth, where dedication and effort translate into greater self-discipline, self-esteem, and teamwork. The learning environment is positive, welcoming, and respectful, led by instructors with experience in children's and youth ballet.

These classes are ideal for children with or without prior experience, whether they are seeking a consistent activity or preparing for more advanced goals in dance.

Enrol your child today and support their development in technique, creativity, and confidence – all through the art of ballet.
