Caroline the adult dance instructor is incredible, fun friendly and very knowledgeable. Flawless in her technique and choreography. We are so lucky to have met her. Highly highly recommended.
Dance studio premises is spacious and adequate for our needs building could do with little TLC, but that's just nit picking, ultimately fit for purpose.

Love this place, my daughter has thrived since joining this dance school, the teaching is so good she has now been offered a place at a top performing arts college in London with a scholarship as well as being selected to represent England at the Dance World Cup this year. For first class training in a school that cares about its students this is definitely the place to go.

My daughter loves this school she has been here for many years now, she does many of the classes and competes so has specially choreographed pieces designed for her by the teachers, she also loves taking part in the yearly show and summer school. The principal, studio manager and teachers are so welcoming and all go above and beyond to help the pupils to be the best they possibly can be. I can’t speak highly enough of the school and the support and services it offers the dancers.
