Friendly and welcoming city centre ballet fitness school. The owner Heather is patient and encouraging. Heather also takes the time to explain each ballet technique and delivers two way and positive feedback. There's also a juice and coffee bar inside.

Heather's classes are addictive to say the least! I attended one of her full day workshops, and I was so amazed by her teaching. I've never met a kinder, more genuinely complimentary dance teacher, who also provides useful corrections and huge amounts of welcome technical guidance. It's the perfect combination. I've never laughed more during a ballet workshop either, which speaks volumes of the joyful atmosphere which you'll find at Ballet Contours. I've returned for 4 drop in classes since then, and each one has left me feeling buoyant and inspired. And if all of that wasn't enough, you will also find a lovely range of dancewear, music, snacks and drinks for sale in this stylish, bijoux studio. I love this place very much, and couldn't recommend it more.

Love these classes. I’m an unfit, overweight mature lady but I’ve been made to feel so welcome. The classes are challenging for me but I can feel it’s doing me good and Heather is so lovely and encouraging. I would urge anyone who is thinking about going along to give it a go. I’ve vacillated for years about going to ballet lessons and I’m so glad I found Ballet Contours. I really look forward to each class.

Being a complete newbie at Ballet Contours I was a little apprehensive and nervous about going to a ballet class on my own but I shouldn’t have worried so much as I was quickly warmly welcomed by the amazing teacher Heather Mae and friendly class members. I have since become addicted to my 45 minuets lunch time Barre express class which as made such a big difference for my days working hunched over my computer. I have suffered for years with an old neck injury and Thoracic Outlet Syndrome which I have had acupuncture, physiotherapy and chiropractic treatments and now thanks to Heathers encouragement and gentle guidance I am having my first full nights sleep in years plus when I get back to my desk after class I feel complete refreshed and energised for the rest of the day. A Big thank you Heather you’ve made such a difference!

I've been dancing at Ballet Contours since January and I can't express enough how amazing Heather is. She is a welcoming, genuine and supportive teacher who encourages each and everyone of us. No matter how many of us are in her class, she spends personalised time with everyone. I leave having an informative understanding of my improvements; my weaknesses that I need work on; and a clearer understanding of my own anatomy. Her teaching methods are inclusive and they deliver results. She clearly puts in alot of time and thought into her lesson plans. I also occasionally have private lessons, when it fits in around life, and I bring my son with me. Heather is so lovely with him, giving him his own space to join in. Heather also takes an interest in what her dancers are upto outside of the studio, asking how we are getting on and even helping me with career choices! Thanks Heather. You're one in a mill!
