My Daughter has attended this school from the age of 6 (now 11) She loves every second she spends at KS dance. She continues to thrive in many ways, growing in confidence, learning skills that will stay with her for life, all encouraged by the wonderful teachers. I must also mention what a beautiful dancer she’s becoming/become!We are so lucky to… have a school that offers so much opportunity to young dancers, Pretty much on our doorstep. If my daughter decides dancing is the career for her (quite likely) I would be delighted if KS dance lead her to live her dreams
