A school with a 100% pass rate
We teach the IDTA exam syllabus, which can take your child from their very first experience of dance through to professional levels. The grades are designed to get the best out of your child at their current age, and to help them better understand and perform technique during their formative years. No exams are compulsory, however: many children prefer to dance for the fun of it. As for those who do choose to take exams, the school has seen tremendous results: we have never had a single student fail an exam, and the vast majority earn merits and distinctions.
Book your lessons
Payments are taken by term, but your very first lesson can be attended via a one-off payment, to check that you enjoy the class.

We also allow you to make up any missed classes on a different day of the week during the same half term.
How old does my child have to be to start jazz?
We generally teach children from the age of eight, and teach the IDTA syllabus.
Do jazz exams count towards UCAS points?
Some of the graded exams do count towards points, and more information can be found on the IDTA website and UCAS websites.
Can my child take more than one dance lesson per week?
Absolutely. Whilst many students enjoy one lesson a week, we strongly encourage any students who wish to spend more time learning with our teachers.
Will my child need any specific clothing or equipment?
We completely understand that you might wish to take a few weeks before deciding to buy a full kit. However, if after a term your child decides to carry on, we would like to stress the importance of acquiring and wearing the uniform (which we have kept as affordable as possible).
As well as being designed to help the teacher see and correct the posture if needed, it will make your child feel part of a team and create a professional and disciplined environment. Uniform is also mandatory for any IDTA exam taken with the school.
Can my child take private lessons?
A number of our students take private lessons regularly or on an had hoc basis, to deepen the technique taught in class.
Will my child participate in shows?
We hold shows regularly (and additionally run workshops and summer schools) which children can take part in. Some of these events are part of the school term schedule, others are separate to the main term and require sign-up.
Should my child take jazz exams?
Exams are a good way to work towards a goal and a great motivational tool, but each child is different. If you think your child would not enjoy taking an exam, we are happy to simply move the child up a level when their teacher thinks that they are ready to progress.
