Dance Competitions:

A Path to Excellence and Teamwork

At KBDA, competitions are not just about medals; they are an extension of our training, offering students the chance to grow as performers, teammates, and individuals.

Our Company dancers are selected based on skill, commitment, and readiness, and represent the academy at both local and national events.

​

The KBDA Company Programme offers a progressive training pathway from age four upwards. Dancers are placed by ability, not just age, ensuring they receive an appropriate challenge and support at each stage. While some dancers compete, Company is a training level, not just a team.

​

Many of our dancers have gained recognition at leading events such as All England Dance, the Dance World Cup, and the ISTD Classical Greek Awards. But more importantly, they carry the values of commitment, creativity, and integrity into every performance.

Placement is by teacher assessment and reviewed regularly to support each dancer’s development. Wherever they are on their journey, we are proud of every dancer who trains and performs as part of the KBDA Company.
