The Ballet Conservatory - Port Elizabeth

𝙊𝙪𝙧 𝙑𝙚𝙧𝙮 𝙁𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝘿𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚𝙧…
When Isabella and her family moved back to PE after living in Graaff-Reinet, she was looking for a place to continue her ballet journey. Taking a leap of faith, she joined the newly opened Ballet Conservatory, becoming the very first dancer to enrol at our studio. 💜🩰

As we celebrate 10 years of The Ballet Conservatory, we’re taking a walk down memory lane.

Over the coming weeks, we’ll be sharing our Then & Now series, featuring some of the dancers who have been such an integral part of our ballet family’s journey. From tiny tutus and first ballet shoes to confident, graceful young dancers, each story is a beautiful reminder of just how far they’ve come.

Alongside their childhood photos and where they are today, our dancers have also shared heartfelt reflections on what ballet and The Ballet Conservatory have meant to them over the years.

Every dancer has a story.
Every journey is unique.
Every step has helped shape who we are today.

💜 Keep your eyes on our page as we take you on this special journey through the past. We can’t wait to share these beautiful stories and treasured memories with you - one dancer at a time.

🩰 A Trip Down Memory Lane begins soon...

💜🩰Where it all began…🩰💜

Our Collegiate High School Dance Studies pupils had the incredible honour of meeting Veronica Paeper, the renowned South African choreographer whose work forms part of their prescribed syllabus. Having the opportunity to watch her choreography performed live and then meet her in person brought their studies to life in a meaningful and memorable way. 💜🩰

💜Dance Tour 2026 - Cape Town Adventure! 💜
What a wonderful weekend exploring the Mother City! Our dancers enjoyed a visit to the vibrant V&A Waterfront, with a delicious breakfast at Vovo Telo.
The highlight of the afternoon was attending Orpheus in the Underworld by Cape Town City Ballet, a spectacular performance that inspired and delighted our young dancers.
After dinner at Tiger’s Milk, we ended the evening with LAMTA’s production of Killer Queen - an energetic celebration of the music of Queen, featuring many of their greatest hits.
