โ˜€๏ธBuild a Dance Show in a Week!

Why not join us for our week long summer school, creating and performing in a dance show which we will build in just one week.

The children will attend daily classes to learn a selection of dances in different styles to perform to their parents and families at the end of the week. During the week we will also work on conditioning, dance technique and maybe even a bit of singing! But we will also have some time for games, competitions and a prop making workshop. It is going to be so much fun and we are really looking forward to seeing what the children can create in a week. The cost is ยฃ125 per child for the 5 day course with a 50% discount for siblings. Open to children from 6-16 years.

Message us asap to reserve your place, or email us at [email protected]

We cannot wait to see what the children can create in one week!
