Ballet underpins all other dance forms, and its study will help dancers to become better at other dance styles, improving their core strength, posture and balance. Wootton Bassett School of Dance teaches the ISTD Cecchetti ballet method and other forms that include ISTD Modern, Tap, National, Limbering, Acrobatics, Adult Tap and Commercial dance. The Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing offer Standard and Grade Examinations for those preferring formal qualifications.
