Email is the best way to contact us. We can arrange a meeting if necessary.

Parents with young dancers can stay on a Saturday morning (10:30-11:30), however all other weekday and Saturday classes will be held behind closed doors.
How will my child progress in technical ability?
Students follow internationally recognised dance and musical theatre syllabi. They can take exams and progress through grades in ballet, tap, jazz, and musical theatre. As well as growing in confidence, students learn new skills, maintain a high level of fitness, develop life-long friendships and have a lot of fun!
