Every class, and the spaces left.

Twenty-four classes a week in two studios, each with its age band, style, teacher, length and the places still open, updated by the office every Friday. Filter by age and style, then book the free taster into the one that fits. The term dates and the prices are below.

An empty dance studio in the morning: a pale sprung wooden floor, a long barre, a wall of mirrors, an upright piano and tall arched windows with sunlight across the floor
