The Lewis Foundation of Classical Ballet conducts classes for children, teens, adults and professional dancers in Bangalore.

Based on the Imperial Classical Ballet syllabus, combined with Yana’s experience of over 30 years in teaching students of several nationalities and backgrounds, our team of dedicated, passionate, nurturing and experienced teachers work relentlessly to bring out the best in the students.

Children’s Classes

Our carefully designed classes give them an opportunity to develop teamwork skills, critical thinking and analytical skills, organization and problem solving skills. Along with enhancing creativity, motor coordination, cognitive skills and developing poise and grace, it also improves their kinesthetic sense. It serves as a medium for self-expression, creative expression, and aesthetic perception, which aids in developing self-esteem, self-respect and self-confidence. Many studies have confirmed that Arts in Education is essential for developing fully formed, well-rounded students.
