English National Ballet School is committed to providing all students with the opportunity to:

	Train to professional standards, developing technical precision and artistic interpretation
	Experience training and education in a warm and caring environment, that enables students to thrive and develop artistically and academically

The teachers at the School are part of the international dance community and they often act as guest teachers for ballet companies abroad. As well as the quality teaching provided by the School’s own staff, their training is enriched by visiting guest teachers. These guest teachers are from English National Ballet Company and other companies worldwide. The students benefit enormously from this wealth of experience and the links with the international dance fraternity.
