INSTRUCTORS PROFILE

Étude Dance Studio was founded by Joni Tan, who has been pursuing her passion for teaching ballet since 2007. Her mission is to nurture the love and appreciation for ballet in everyone, and believes that anyone can learn and enjoy this beautiful form of art, at any stage of their life. Joni acknowledges that everyone from aspiring young dancers to recreational adult dancers has different needs and abilities, and has specially tailored the teaching methodology to ensure that everyone enjoys the art of ballet at their own individual pace. At Étude Dance Studio, we offer the UK’s Royal Academy of Dance (RAD UK) syllabus for both children and adults, and also offer our own proprietary Adult Ballet Syllabus for adult learners.

We also offer a variety of non-syllabus dance programmes to provide a holistic and well rounded dance training for all our students. All our programmes are taught by experienced and qualified instructors with a keen understanding of their genre of expertise. At Étude Dance Studio, our dancers’ safety and well-being are very important to us. We are therefore committed to conducting classes in a safe and healthy manner, helping dancers to understand how best to condition and prepare their bodies for the technical demands of dance. Our studio is also fitted with sprung floors laid with Harlequin premium dance mats, reducing the risk of dancers’ injury and helping them perform to the best of their abilities.
