We are ARB, Best ballet studio based in Bangkok, Thailand
What is special when studying dance with ARB?
What we focus most here is students’ happiness because we always believe that dancing is one kind of art which can help with child development, allowing kids to have good health, concentration, fun and knowledge
The children can customize their learning.
We provide student-centered teaching, allowing them to design how they would like to learn, either focusing on examination level by level or emphasizing on the dancing skill and personal improvement. Of course, we can balance and mix both ways together if that is the students’ preferred choices.
We are also responsible for the children’s Ballet Examination with Royal Academy of Dance.
The teachers will help prepare the children for the examination in all aspects necessary.
The benefits of the Ballet Examination.
The examination not only officially gets the children to the higher ballet level, but it also can shape the students to have discipline, problem-solving skills, confidence and the ability to express themselves properly.
The decision to join the examination is based on the parents’ discretion and the children’s judgment, depending on the students’ ability assessed by the teachers. The students’ decision is totally voluntary. We will not force the students if they are not ready.
Showcase and semi-recital
Here, the students will have plenty of opportunities to display their dancing and ballet capability. The performances will take place in auditorium and stage or being recorded as video.
