From the reviews
Katie is a brilliant, talented, dedicated and professional teacher with a teaching style tailored to the individual students’s abilities and age.She is such a patient and positive teacher.
I do love Friday mornings. It means dancing into the weekend doing back-to-back Ballet and Jazz classes with the wonderful Katie Fletcher at my local studio, Open Space, in Hove, the perfect tonic after a long week.
Ballet Beats is a really fun class in a welcoming and supportive atmosphere. As an almost total novice to ballet when I first joined I feel I am developing grace, strength and the joy of the dance. Katie is an inspiring teacher. I couldn't resist trying out Katie's Jazz class and that's been great too!

Adult ballet at Katie Fletcher- Adult Ballet and Jazz Classes in Brighton and Hove
Katie Fletcher- Adult Ballet and Jazz Classes in Brighton and Hove runs classes for grown-ups, going by their listing and students’ reviews. If you've never taken ballet, or you're coming back to it after years away, this is for you — and a good studio genuinely welcomes a nervous first-timer. A few things worth asking before you go. First, which class to start in — look for one labeled "absolute beginner" or "adult beginner" rather than an open or "all levels" class, so you learn the fundamentals at the right pace. Second, drop-in or term — many adult programs let you pay per class to try it, then move to a term or monthly package once you're hooked. Third, what to wear — comfortable clothes you can move in, plus socks or bare feet, are plenty for a first class; you won't need a leotard or ballet shoes to walk in the door. It's never too late for first position.
Your first ballet class at Katie Fletcher- Adult Ballet and Jazz Classes in Brighton and Hove
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
