School of dance

PARTNERSHIPS

Established in 1996 by Catherine Bellinger, the school prides itself on providing a friendly, fun, yet professional environment for children of all ages to learn dance for pleasure, for fitness or as a vocation. Our team of enthusiastic, experienced and qualified teachers offers a structured learning experience in ballet, tap, modern jazz, hip-hop, contemporary, musical production, singing and drama.

For those children who would like to take professional dance qualifications, the school holds Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) and International Dance Teachers’ Association examination sessions each year. All pupils are invited to take part in the annual productions, which are great fun, give an opportunity to dance on a large stage and to demonstrate to family and friends all the hard work that’s been put in during the year!

Thanks to the experience, professionalism and hard work of our pupils, alumni and teachers our success as a school has been recognised in a wide variety of ways, including dancing with the stars of Strictly Come Dancing, appearing in the West End in professional musicals and working in respected companies, including The Royal Ballet, The London Children’s Ballet, The English Youth Ballet, The National Youth Ballet and The Southern Youth Ballet. Pupils regularly go on to study at renowned vocational schools including The Royal Ballet School, Tring, Arts Ed, Laines, Bird College of Dance, Ballet Theatre UK and Legat.
