About her ballet class at Pineapple:

Eloise's 1 hour ballet classes are designed for those who seek to refine their ballet technique within a condensed timeframe. These classes is an intensive exploration of ballet's fundamental principles, emphasising the development of a strong technical foundation, precise alignment, and the flexibility required to execute ballet's most demanding movements.

Each session is a journey through classical ballet. I keenly focus on enhancing musicality and the quality of movement while paying close attention to each dancer's unique physicality.
