Majors programme

Our Majors programme provides intensive training in Classical Ballet for talented dance students. Students follow the Royal Academy of Dance Vocational Graded syllabus, from Intermediate Foundation to Advanced levels with our professional, qualified staff.

Annual auditions

Due to the demanding nature of the syllabus and examinations, entry to the programme is by annual audition. The auditions are open to ballet students currently studying RAD Grades 3-5 or equivalent. Each candidate receives a letter with a short report on their performance based on the adjudicator's comments. Unfortunately, the syllabus is not suitable for all dancers.

Training and classes

Students in the programme will attend at least 3 ballet classes each week. They should complement their ballet training with additional classes in other styles such as jazz, acrobatics, gymnastics, contemporary and modern. Majors students are encouraged to audition for associate schemes (e.g.Ballet West, Scottish Ballet and English National Contemporary Ballet) and to attend holiday courses across scotland and the UK. They will also have a demanding rehearsal and performance schedule.

The programme is a big committment and demands dedication from both students and their parents.
