Parents enquiring about holiday camps should ask about the age range and level each camp is designed for, whether the programme follows a recognised syllabus such as the Royal Academy of Dance or Cecchetti, and how existing ballet experience (or the complete absence of it) is accommodated. It is worth clarifying whether a trial or taster session is offered before committing to a full camp block, the group size and student-to-teacher ratio, what attire and footwear participants are expected to bring, and whether sibling or early-bird discounts apply. For families outside the immediate Kallang area, check whether the Stadium Walk studio is the sole venue or whether satellite locations are available for certain programmes.
To take the next step, contact Singapore Ballet Academy by phone or through the enquiry form on the listing to ask about upcoming holiday camp dates, available levels, and current fees before securing a place.
Take the trial class and confirm the tutor's actual credentials before committing to a term.
Both my girls have been with SBA for over a decade. Our experience with the school had exceeded our expectations. While my 1st impression of the school wasn’t great(find the school generally quite stuck up), my views changed when we started to know the teachers & staff better. Yes, it wasn’t all rosy initially. My girls wanted to quit at some point but I’m glad we hang on. At a lower grade(pre-pri grade), my younger gal had changed a few teachers. But as she moved up the grade, teachers were more or less the same. While my eldest gal started at an older age, both girls were blessed to have been taught by many great teachers. Ms Nicole is so creative in her contemporary choreo, she inspires🤩 Ms Huang’s class was never dull, girls always come out smiling😄. Ms Kwok, a versatile dancer herself never fails to give the girls correction👍🏻(she’s no longer teaching) Ms Lee (with her for the longest time), a professional dancer previously, always give good tips and truly cares for the girls🥰. Ms Ong is very nurturing, constantly looking out for the girls. She even offer advice to the older girls if they choose to embark on a dance career. She also took care of the girls’ competition leotards 💕 Not to forget Mr Han (IMO master of master in ballet industry) with his no nonsense face, he instill strict discipline & gives quality teaching to the YG class👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. Our girls are so fortunate that they don’t have to fly overseas to attend his masterclass. 🥳 The amazing part of this school is even the admin staff are excellent. Can see the hardwork of the back end staff, especially Joseph. Since he came onboard, we parents really felt the admin staff had done an excellent job. Even outsiders gave compliments when they signed up for SBA’s annual masterclass. Under his wing, the admin team is doing such a great job that the girls can just concentrate on their training. This is 1 school I highly recommend & if the girls stayed long enough, you will know why.
My experience here was amazing! Every 2 years we have performance so I'm very happy about it!
I have been in SBA for over 9 years!! The teachers have taught me so much about ballet😃
I happened to chance here and i think i should give my views to give a real picture from my DD's exp, my DD attended classes here before switching to another sch, I find the method and comments to the students not very suitable as a ballet instructor. Only those who tripod the instructors gets favoured & even when my DD was in the sch youth performing grp teach by the principal, she was critically put down and she was expected to be good in pointe when she is only Grade 4 and 10 yrs old in YPG. In her new ballet sch now, the teachers are very good & she is happy in the new ballet school & winning comps & enjoying herself. The reason why this oldest sch is so backdated now is the way they treat the students and parents with disrespect. My DD's 6 friends also left the school evantually one by one & so sad it was so much better when the previous principal was around. Fyi, reviews given by a specific group of students and the teacher DD and the shop assistants are dishonest ratings to boost ratings & these reviews given to push up poor ratings is a big shameful thing as this is very misleading to consumers like us. My best decision is to pull my DD out of this place end of last year. Reconsider the sch before enrolling and the fees keeps increasing too! There are many better schools out there with better timings. My review is a honest consumer rating whose DD attended the school till a year ++ after the good previous principal left. This rating is left as seeing unfair reviews to mislead consumers.
proud teachers and demeaning to the kids, notably a lot of favouritism going on in classes and left out kids. too many eager to please and curry favour parents. not a healthy environment from holistic and constructive learning. not recommended after hanging around the sitting area speaking to other parents who shared these feedback, heading to another sch with my $.

Singapore Ballet Academy does not publish a specific fee on its listing, so pricing should be confirmed directly. Holiday camp fees in Singapore typically vary by duration (half-day versus full-day), the number of days in the block, and whether any materials or costume hire are included. Ask whether a sibling discount or early-bird rate applies, and confirm whether a trial or taster session is available at a reduced fee before committing to the full camp. Some providers charge a separate registration or administrative fee on top of the camp price. It is worth asking for a full written breakdown before paying.

Whether Singapore Ballet Academy offers a standalone trial or taster session for its holiday camps is not specified in the current listing — this is worth asking directly when you enquire. For holiday camp formats, a taster day is sometimes offered at the start of a block, or a one-day drop-in rate may be available. When assessing fit, consider whether the pace and level are appropriate for your child, whether the teaching style holds your child's attention, and whether the environment feels welcoming for their experience level. A single session is usually enough to gauge engagement and level suitability before committing to a longer programme.
Instructor credentials are not listed in the current provider data, so it is advisable to ask Singapore Ballet Academy directly before booking. Relevant qualifications to look for in a ballet context include examined teacher certification from bodies such as the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) or Cecchetti International Classical Ballet, as well as performance or choreography experience that informs the teaching approach. For holiday camps in particular, also ask about the ratio of instructors to students and whether the lead teacher for the camp is the same person throughout the block, as consistency matters for younger learners. If the Academy follows a specific syllabus, ask which examining board it is affiliated with.
If Singapore Ballet Academy isn't the right fit, these are other holiday camps providers on KakiList worth shortlisting. All are independently listed — no affiliate fees, no "featured" sponsorships.
