TEACHER TRAINING

The next steps once you have passed all Graded Ballet & Intermediate exams could be to start a teacher training course. Once you are 17 years or older you are eligible to start the DDI (Dance Instruction) teaching course. This could lead onto the DDE teaching course, DDP course/Licentiate, and Fellowship. As the Dance world is very competitive these courses could allow you to become more employable. For more information click below!
