Are you looking for an activity that combines fun and growth?
The ballet classes for children aged 7 in Penafiel mark an important stage of evolution, where technique begins to consolidate and imagination turns into artistic expression.

Children’s ballet at this level helps develop not only flexibility and discipline, but also stage confidence and a true passion for the art of dance. It also strengthens self-esteem and encourages teamwork and friendship.
