Our adult ballet retreats in the UK and in Europe are carefully curated to create an intimate, immersive, and enlightening weekend of dancing for ballet dancers of all abilities.
When you join a Let’s Dance ballet retreat you’ll meet like-minded ballet dancers, try new things and learn from experts.
ABOUT our RETREATS
We keep each group small, with a maximum of 8 -10 participants to ensure you get the support and attention to detail you need from our professional teachers.
Each retreat is tailored to different levels of experience from beginners with up to 1 years' experience, improvers with 1 – 2 years’ experience, intermediate with 2 - 5 years of experience and advanced ballet dancers with 5 + years of experience.
We have invited some of the best and most inspiring teachers to share their knowledge and passion of the world of ballet. By the end of the retreat, you'll feel nurtured yet challenged and leave with a new confidence and sense of achievement.

“From the moment I stepped into the beautiful studio, I was greeted by a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The hosts and professional ballet teacher were not only incredibly talented but also incredibly supportive and encouraging. They truly made me feel like I belonged and helped me push my boundaries to achieve new heights in my ballet journey.”

“I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to be taught by Bennet. He was everything you could wish for from a Royal Ballet dancer and teacher, creating a lovely calm class full of individual attention and encouragement. It was a wonderful, joyful weekend and I will definitely do it again.”
