"I've been going to Yuka's classes since late 2014. As a complete beginner in my late twenties, I had been nervous about a lot of things before starting ballet – not being flexible, not having much strength, and potentially being embarrassed in front of a class of people half my age. I needn't have worried, as Yuka's classes are a welcome environment for anyone regardless of age or experience. I could pick out lots of highlights from over the years (many 'click' moments where suddenly the music and the movements made sense, no longer having back pain because my posture improved), but the best are probably the things that I didn't expect – performing on stage for the first time since my teens, learning about different aspects of ballet history and repertoire, and making great friends. Thank you, Yuka!"

I have been taking classes and taking part in shows with the Yuka Kodama Ballet Group for the last 18 years! I have really enjoyed being able to learn so much more about different ballets and where the steps you learn in class, end up in repertoire on stage. Yuka also has very good knowledge of which muscles need to engage for each particular movement, and I have found her detailed explanations of how to utilise them very helpful in making improvement!
It's also very unusual for adults to be treated as though they want to improve, and be given proper corrections. However, this is something Yuka is really good at, and something I really appreciate. It's also so unusual to have the opportunity to take part in an annual (usually about 3 hours long!) show as an adult! I have thoroughly enjoyed all of the shows and mini performances I have taken part in with the group over the years - an opportunity I wouldn't have otherwise had!
Highly recommend these classes!

I went to Yuka’s classes on an almost daily basis for three years. Throughout the time with her, I have learned to truly love ballet for all its beauty, strength and precision. Note that this was when I was already in my late twenties - especially with Yuka, it’s never too late to start!
For me, the most remarkable thing about Yuka’s classes is how she will see and support the potential of all dancers, no matter their age or experience. By combining her vast knowledge of ballet and anatomy with everyday analogies, she‘ll never leave you without precise feedback on how to improve that specific move you struggle with.
I am forever grateful for all that I learned in Yuka’s classes. Plus, people in her classes are lovely - and who doesn’t like to learn while making friends for life, right?
