Success Stories

At Cygnets we believe all of our pupils are stars. Many chose to study the NATD Russian Ballet syllabus and achieve excellent grades, whilst some go on to study at a ballet academy or dance school. Our students past and present have earned scholarships to prestigious dance academies such as the Royal Danish Ballet, the Royal Ballet School, and The London Studio Centre, as well as starring in dance roles in West-end musicals, film and theatre. We are proud to maintain a 100% pass rate of NATD exams with all students achieving a Merit or Distinction grade.

Whatever path our students take, we know that each and every one learns the joy of dance and the enormous self confidence it provides.

Joe, age 9

Joe, age 9

Since joining Cygnets Ballet just two years ago and under Nataliya's careful supervision Joe has amazed us with his physical ability and pace of learning. Joe was snapped up by the Royal Ballet School at his first audition, initially as an associate member, and has since progressed to a full time student with full scholarship. It is a pleasure to teach such a talented, graceful and intelligent student who has the potential to become a truly great dancer.
