Our Professional Teaching Team

At our dance academy, we take immense pride in our team of highly qualified and experienced dance teachers. Our instructors have dedicated years of their lives to mastering the art of dance, investing both time and resources into their training. Many of them have graced stages not just locally but internationally, and some have even performed on prestigious cruise ships. Their performance experience is not just about dancing; it's about providing your child with a unique insight into the life of a professional dancer.

Our teachers have all walked the path of a student in a dance school during their own childhood, eventually pursuing further education at performing arts colleges or universities. However, being a performer alone isn't sufficient to become a great teacher. Our instructors possess teaching qualifications, ensuring that they can impart their knowledge to your child in a nurturing and safe manner.

We believe that being a dance teacher means being a lifelong learner. Our instructors are committed to continuous improvement and stay up-to-date with the latest teaching methods. They regularly engage in Continuing Professional Development courses, reflecting their passion for both dance and teaching. When you choose our dance school, you're choosing instructors who are dedicated to your child's growth and development.

A Safe and Supportive Environment

Safety is paramount when it comes to dance education. Our academy operates with comprehensive insurance coverage, including public liability insurance and professional indemnity insurance. This means that in the rare event that something doesn't meet our high standards, there's coverage for all parties involved.

We understand the importance of ensuring that all staff members working with children are trustworthy. As such, every member of our team has undergone thorough Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) checks, as required when working with children. You can rest assured that your child is in safe hands.

Our commitment to safety extends beyond background checks. Our dance studio adheres to strict fire safety protocols and maintains comprehensive health and safety policies. We regularly conduct risk assessments and keep them readily available for your review. Additionally, our policies cover accident and injury procedures, ensuring that every child leaves with a known parent or guardian. Our safeguarding policy reflects our unwavering commitment to your child's well-being.

We're here to assist you every step of the way, from answering your questions to inviting you for a tour or a trial class.

Above all, trust your instincts. When you find the right dance school for your child, you'll feel welcomed and included from the moment you step through the door. No question is too small or too silly, and you'll sense the passion and determination of our team to guide your child towards a fulfilling dance journey, whether it's for a future career or a lifelong hobby filled with love and joy.
