Dance is a part of us all, since the beginning of time people have danced. We dance for joy, to celebrate, to communicate and to express life. During the 16th century in the royal courts of Italy and France ballet was born. It has spread across the world, branched into new forms of dance and is respected today as a sport and art form.
Our Mission: To provide a quality dance education promoting the art of dance in a positive and encouraging environment.
Our Philosophy: To enrich our students lives through dance, promoting confidence, self-esteem, artistic expression and health.




There are many benefits to be gained from the study of dance including:

These are all important skills and attributes for one to experience an enriched life.
It is scientifically proven that as one dances the combination of music, movement and creativity releases more endorphins responsible for feeling good than any other sport, it increases one’s mental acuity and improves cognitive skills.
Dance is an activity for everyone at any age.


Dance is a wonderful sport and art form that promotes a positive self-image as well as a healthy life style. The study of dance introduces an appreciation for the performing arts. By choosing dance, you are giving your child a gift to build a strong and healthy body and mind. That can positively influence all other aspects of their lives.


With correct training you child will develop good posture, correct body alignment, poise and grace. Dancing will increase flexibility, fitness, improve coordination and concentration. Children gain confidence, self- discipline as well as respect for their peers and teachers. Our group classes will assist with team work and offer a friendly social environment. Most importantly self-expression will be learnt through the most beautiful of all the arts.


At the Ballet Academy Lucerne every student is an individual, we offer each student the opportunity to grow, learn and develop. We want all our students to prosper and love learning to dance.
The teachers of the Ballet Academy Lucerne hold professional internationally recognised dance & teaching qualifications. They participle in regular dance teacher seminars, they are at the forefront in teaching and dance training practices. Students are in the very best of hands.
Our studios are state of the art providing the optimal environment to learn. We are the only dance school in Luzern providing sprung dance floors from the world leader in dance floors, Harlequin which ensure the correct levels of shock absorption, rebound and traction when training. This is vital to the healthy development of dancer’s muscles and joints, providing injury prevention.


Our preschool department Sunshine Baby & Kids offers the classes Mini Movers and Mini Ballerinas which all offer a fun filled introduction to dance, movement, music and singing in an energetic and social environment created especially for them. We offer classes together with a parent/carer or independently with the teacher.


Formal classes can start from around age 5 - 6 years but it is also possible to start later and make great progress with recreational, hobby as well as more intensive pre-professional programmes to choose from. Our programmes consist of a specialised curriculum which is age appropriate and challenges students at each level.


Young dancers are always enthusiastic about beginning dancing “En Pointe”. If a child has had correct ballet training, they can begin pointe work between the ages of 10 to 12. Realistically to prepare the body and muscles correctly, students from 8 years need to take a minimum of two ballet classes per week for two or more years to be considered to commence pointe work under the guidance of a trained professional.


Combines the understanding of the correct way in which to warm up the body before the technical sections of class, understanding how to work in harmony with our bodies once warm and to stretch them at the end of class. Hydration during exercise is also an important element.
