About Dorchester Ballet and Dance Club
We have been established in Dorset since 1958, providing dance classes for both children and adults. Our founders, Ann Hannay and Elizabeth Goodchild MBE, wanted to make Dorchester Ballet and Dance different from private dance schools. They made it their mission to ensure that dance was available to all “regardless of age, wealth or ability”. The ballerina Anna Pavlova was a lifetime source of inspiration and interest for Ann Hannay. The swan will always be associated with Anna Pavlova and this is the reason why it is our logo.
We offer an extremely high standard of dance to our members, whether for fun or as a future vocation; providing over 50 classes each week. We take students from 2 years and believe that being involved in dance is an important and positive influence in children’s development.
