Lessons and Classes.

We provide a range of different dance classes for new beginners (both adults and children) looking to take their first steps in dance, and private lessons for more experienced dancers wishing to improve their dance skills. Our students take their examinations with the United Kingdom Alliance (UKA) and we are proud that we have a 100% pass rate.

Wedding Dances.

We also specialise in choreographing specific dance routines for special events. Getting your first dance at your wedding makes your day even more memorable. Whether you are looking for a romantic waltz, or a flamboyant “Dirty Dancing” routine, we will create the perfect Wedding Dance just for you.

Social Dances, Shows and Events.

Social dances are held every month, and we organise showcases, talent shows and other dance events regularly throughout the year, so there is always something to look forward to, and plenty of chance to perform, or simply enjoy a dance in a social environment.
