Delighted to hear from Lily who is now at Rambert School.
Lily spent her crucial year of auditioning, training here at Ballet Boost, ABA and Dance Enhance.

“Ballet Boost is such a lovely environment to train in...

The standard is very high, with so many amazing teachers!

I always felt inspired, encouraged and challenged in a healthy way to be the best I could be.

I am so grateful to Emma Northmore for her brilliant coaching but also for being so kind and nurturing and giving me the confidence boost I needed to get me through my auditions.…

And go on to receive the offer I really wanted (Rambert School).

Thank you so much to Emma and all her incredible team! 💖💖”
