Come Dance With Us

Our friendly and professional dance school focuses on the benefits of dance, not just on those who want to do it professionally. There are so many reasons why dance is good for everyone.

When children go to a dance class, they are not just learning to dance. They are gaining a range of different benefits. Children learn to follow instructions, they gain a sense of discipline through learning new positions, improve co-ordination and balance and learn how to control their bodies in motion. This has also been proven to help them regulate their own emotions.

More importantly, they gain confidence and become comfortable performing in groups and eventually individually. Dance increases flexibility and stamina as pupils are pushed to their limits which increases their mental strength and determination, making them more resilient learners.

FAQ

Do I need the correct uniform / shoes to start?

No, we believe that you should only purchase uniform after your first month for children’s classes, or two weeks for adults. This is to ensure that you are happy with the classes.

Is uniform compulsory?

We do have compulsory uniform for exams and performances. We have a more relaxed uniform for classes, but do expect students to wear appropriate clothing.

Do classes run through the school holidays?

Our classes run for 44 weeks of the year. We have two weeks off for Christmas and Easter, and 3 weeks off at the end of the summer. We also have an extra 1 (just in case) week, which may be taken for illness or adverse weather

Are exams, performances and shows compulsory?

Our school likes everyone to be equal, and have the opportunity to do exams, performances and shows. However, these are not compulsory and if a student does not want to do one or any of these, they do not have to.

Are there different colour leotards for different classes?

Each grade has a set colour leotard for the exams. You can find out which colours are needed on our uniform order form or by asking a member of staff. For performances our leotards are black.

Where can I find your timetable?

Our timetable can be found on our website and also on our registration system Classmaster.

What happens if you miss a lesson?

Because our lessons are paid for a month in advance, any classes missed because of illness or holidays are non refundable. However we will allow you to attend another suitable class, if available. If we have to postpone a lesson, we will give you an alternative date and time.

I’ve never danced before, am I too old to start now?

You are never too old to start dancing. Our adult classes are aimed at beginner, intermediate and advanced students.

What hairstyles do they need for Ballet?

For Ballet, students need to have their hair up in either a bun or a hairstyle which is out of their face.

Does your school do competitions or exams?

We are not a competitive school. Our students do exams and a show once a year, we are also starting to do performances throughout the year.

How big are your classes?

As we are an autism aware organisation, we like to keep our classes small. Some classes have a maximum capacity of 15, others have a maximum capacity of 10. This also allows us to focus more carefully on teaching our students safe dance technique.

How much do classes cost?

Our 30 minute classes are £18.00 a month. Our 45 and 60 minute classes are £25.50 a month each. If you or your children do 3 or more classes a week there is a discount for the monthly costs.

How do I work Classmaster?

If you are having trouble navigating your way around Classmaster, please feel free to message Nikki or send Classmaster an email support@classmaster.cloud.

A great fun way to learn to Tap

“I joined Nikki’s Beginners Tap just a few months ago and I’m enjoying learning how to Tap – I’m a complete novice and Nikki is a good teacher with loads of patience. She doesn’t mind repeating steps and she knows how to put you at ease. It doesn’t matter if there are different people at different levels within the class as everyone gets along and if you make mistakes, it’s no big deal because we just laugh it off! A great fun way to learn to Tap.”

Nikki’s adult tap class is the highlight of my week!

“Nikki’s adult tap class is the highlight of my week! Nikki is friendly and approachable and listens to the needs of her students. The classes are well pitched to suit students’ levels of dance experience and ability. Nikki uses all of her own choreography, but also encourages development and participation when choreographing new dances. All in all, a lovely class.”
