What we do

We instill a love of dance in each student and give them skills that last a lifetime

We lay the foundation, training our students with the concept of discipline, determination, and dedication. These skills begin with ballet and are useful in all aspects of our students’ lives.

World Class Premises

We have the structure and comfort needed to be the best studio for learning, for parents to wait, for students to grow and excel in dance.

Highly Experienced, Caring Teachers

We choose the most qualified
individuals for each position and insist on continued education, development, and commitment to their role.

All Classes Are taught by Industry Arts Professionals

Our highly experienced, carefully selected teachers treat each student with respect, expertise and a passion for developing their potential and personality through the expression of dance. Our classes are holistic, where each student is seen as a whole, as a unique being that requires full attention and assistance.

Hence, our method of teaching is not one of “repeating what the teacher does”, but one of embracing each student’s strengths and transforming it into beautiful movement and technique.

"My daughter is 5 years old. She has been with RSB for about 4 months now. She is loving the ballet. The school is very professional. The nice thing is that they are a school that can also help you if you would like to make dancing a career."
Margo Van Rensburg - Parent
"I absolutely love dancing at the Russian School of Ballet! Everything is very detailed from the dancing to the explanations, there's always an answer to "why do we do it this way?" or "which muscles is it supposed to work?" The Russian School of Ballet is extremely passionate about the children and the dancing and there's a lot of effort put into making everything they do beautiful. Dancing at this school is a very enjoyable experience and you learn something new almost all the time, you learn to push yourself and constantly improve both in and out of dancing. Couldn't ask for better❤️"
Talisa Pillay - Ballet Student
"We have been to many Ballet schools in 4 different countries, yet with Russian school of Ballet my daughter has progressed quicker than anywhere else, she loves going there everyday and I can see that they make sure to help each dancer to develop, not just to take a class and leave but they make sure that every dancer how they can get better, they encourage the dancers to take competitions, we had the Buratino Show last week and it was amazing!! Everything was organised, professional, the kids loved it and we enjoyed every moment of it, I would recommend it to anyone who want to help their children to enjoy and progress in Ballet, very friendly teacher/parents, feels like family, Thank you so much RSB."
Doha Hazem - Parent

It was a long day - 3 concerts in one day! 🤩 Dancers did get tired, but at the same time, they fully enjoyed the atmosphere of camaraderie and the opportunity to socialise with their peers, sharing a common passion for dance.
Don't try this exercise without supervision. 😐 Our students took time and methodical approach to achieve this level of flexibility and mobility.
