Frequently asked questions
How to Book a Block of Classes
We offer three booking tiers:
Access:
Designed to make dance available to everyone, this tier offers a discounted rate for those who need financial support
Standard:
Our regular class rate, covering the full cost of the session and helping us maintain high-quality teaching and facilities
Supporter:
For those who want to contribute a little extra to help us keep dance accessible and affordable for all. Thank you for your generosity!
Bookings can be made in one of the following blocks:
Half Term (6 weeks)
Full Term (12 weeks)
Please choose the options that works best for your family.
Bookings are non-refundable, but your child is most welcome to make up a missed class by attending an additional one at a different time.
Please read our Terms and Conditions before you book.
Do you offer taster sessions?
Our Two-Week Trial is a gentle, low-pressure way for them to try out a class, meet new friends, and see if it feels like the right fit before signing up for the term.
Not sure which class is right? Feel free to browse our classes and see which one best suits your child. You can book two week tasters for Groove & Grow, Creative Dance & Ballet, and Ballet for £15 here
Two week tasters for our Creative Contemporary classes can be booked for £16 here
We can’t wait to welcome you and your child soon!
Does my child need to wear a uniform?
We are an inclusive organisation with an open minded ethos. Hence, we do not expect children to wear a specific uniform but ask them to wear comfortable clothing that they can move well in. However, we do recommend the following attire for the following classes:
Groove & Grow
Comfortable clothes, socks/barefoot
Creative Dance & Ballet
Socks/ballet shoes, comfortable clothes, hair band (if long hair)
Ballet
Leotard, ballet shoes + ballet skirt/leggings, hair band (if long hair)
Creative Contemporary
T-shirt/longsleeve, leggings/joggers, hair band (if long hair)
Are dance classes for girls only?
All of our classes are of inclusive nature, which is why we welcome boys as much as girls to join our classes.
Do you offer Ballet or Contemporary exams?
We do not offer exams as we believe that learning and individual development can take place best in a safe environment that is free of competition and pressure.
We do, however, celebrate each child’s achievements in form of a yearly performance for family and friends, and at our termly Parents Watch Days.
Our director and lead facilitator, Svenja, has prepared dance students for Royal Academy of Dance Ballet exams in the past, so her ballet class structure is influenced by their technical and developmental standards.
Can I watch my child’s dance class?
Yes, there will be three Parents Watch Days a year on which we welcome parents to see their children in class, and to celebrate the children’s achievements and learning.
Am I required to stay at the premises during my child’s class?
We ask parents and caregivers to stay within the premises, if possible, in case of an emergency.
Do you accept drop-ins?
We welcome new dancers for taster classes but do not accept drop ins to ensure consistency.
