The school has children ranging......from 2 1/2 years to students preparing to attend full time training at 18 years. At the school we try to get the right mix of fun and excitement with the discipline and control required for dance.The Challis School of Dance has been established since December 2000 and has had many successes since then including biannual shows and excellent examination results. We currently have approximately 300 pupils in the school and enter about 100 children a year for exams in tap, ballet or modern. We regularly enter pupils for vocational exams in London with a 100% pass rate. |

Our biannual show is held at The Civic Centre, Aylesbury so the children get the chance to dance on a stage and perform to a live audience; not only do the children relish such an occasion but it is a wonderful experience for the parents to see their children enjoying such a rare opportunity.
The school has also performed in children's variety performances in the West End, London. Several of the girls have danced with the English Youth Ballet and one pupil won the Gold Cup for ballet in the Aylesbury Dance Festival. We have also had students successfully audition for The Royal Ballet School junior, mid and senior associates as well as classes at Central Ballet School As you can see we love to celebrate our pupils' successes and achievements and The Challis School of Dance is about so much more than just attending classes. |
