Emma Morgan recently attended a reunion at The Hammond, the renowned performing arts school where she trained as a young dancer.
As she walked through those familiar corridors, surrounded by old friends, memories came flooding back, as well as the shared determination to follow a dream. It was here that Emma learned the dedication and discipline that would one day shape tiny toes ballet.
Today, tiny toes ballet is a thriving, award-winning franchise network offering inspiring children’s ballet classes across the UK.
"Celebrating 15 years of tiny toes ballet fills me with such pride. Returning to The Hammond made me reflect on my journey, and my lifelong passion for dance and education has grown into something that brings me endless joy. Seeing how our classes have inspired confidence, creativity, and happiness in so many little dancers over the years is the greatest reward."
- Emma Morgan, founder of tiny toes ballet
For many families, our classes are the first introduction to the magic of dance. Tiny toes ballet offers a unique, educational approach that grows with each child. Our classes are carefully designed to support key stages of child development.
Dance can take you so many places. Emma Morgan founded tiny toes ballet, while her friends from The Hammond have all followed incredible paths. Some became teachers, others danced with world-renowned companies, and some now work in completely different fields. Dance truly opens doors, and these journeys show just how far it can take you.
That reflection leads to an inspiring question we often ask: What will you do next?
