The London Ballet Junior Company

For over a decade, The London Ballet Company has proudly nurtured young talent through our Associates Programme, culminating each year in a fully staged professional performance at Easter. As we look to the future, we are excited to build on this success by elevating the performances to become the main focus of the programme. From now on, our Junior Company (previously Associates) will prepare for two productions each year, with specialised training and rehearsals woven into their development, ensuring every dancer grows both on stage and in the studio.

The London Ballet Junior Company is a unique pre-professional programme for versatile young dancers who are committed to developing their technical and performing skills across multiple dance genres.

The Company provides a platform for aspiring dancers to train and perform at a high level while experiencing life as part of a professional company:

- One Sunday each month dedicated to training and rehearsals.
- Focus on ballet, contemporary, jazz, lyrical, and musical theatre.
- Perform twice across the year in a professional local theatre, appearing alongside professional artists.

Past productions:
A Little Princess
An Olympic Dream
Cinderella
Maria
