Ballroom dance instructors in London

“In the space of a year I have progressed from a complete novice to an active competitor qualifying in the top 3 for Blackpool and it's all down to Rubies Dance Centre! Head Coach Neil provides me with fundamental, technical knowledge to give me the best foundations on which to improve my ballroom and Latin dancing. Rubies is made up of many fantastic dancers of all levels and from a range of backgrounds and I love being a part of it's supportive culture. We have so much fun as a school and know that if we work hard we can achieve great things. Thank you Rubies Dance Centre for welcoming me into the dancing world and giving me the confidence to get out there and reach my goals!”

“Had the best experience during lockdown with this dance studio. It has been one of the only things keeping me mentally and physically fit. Marius and Oti have been wonderful teachers, I especially have loved Shake It With Oti! Really hope it makes a comeback! Thank you both for keeping the nation healthy during the past year, can’t wait to be in the studio this weekend!”

“I joined To learn ballroom with my wife a few months ago. It’s relaxed, fun and we can actually dance now! Really enjoyable with a great teacher Pail who makes sure everyone is comfortable and enjoying themselves. Highly recommend”

“Jack Murphy is an inspirational teacher.His depth of subject knowledge, and his ability to deliver a great experience in a relaxed learning environment will be outstanding. His energy and enthusiasm are infectious, and within minutes of your first meeting you will be relaxed, encouraged and comfortable within yourself, and the group you are dancing with. The atmosphere is positive and proactive. Jack's style of teaching is thorough and encouraging. If you want to learn all the basics of ballroom and latin dancing, but you are anxious with your two left feet, or you are shy and out of your comfort zone with a bunch of strangers, Jack is the best teacher for you because he will ensure that you have absolutely nothing to fear.”

“What a great place! We had a fantastic experience provided by lovely and very professional teacher Ksenia. She was very helpful and happy to focus on things I especially wanted to improve while getting us out of the comfort zone. Ksenia has a very good eye to make necessary corrections and a huge dance knowledge. Also, she is very encouraging and a super joy to work with! Would highly recommend!”

“I transported Rob, Stefan and students from Dakoda's Dance Academy to a dance competition. They were a delight to serve, very polite, punctual and the students were extremely well disciplined. I would be very happy to work with you again!!”

“Wonderful experience! Anna is a lovely person and a great teacher. My wife and I were able to choreograph our wedding song in 5 lessons. Amazing results! We highlightly recommend First Dance London :)”

“My adorable wife and I celebrated our 20th Anniversary in London. My wife is from Vienna and she had the brilliant idea of taking a lesson to finally learn the Viennese Waltz - which we've been butchering for the last 20 years. This would be our first ever dance lesson individually or together. After much searching she found Paul and from the first email exchange we knew we had found the right teacher. When we arrived for our lesson Paul immediately made us feel welcome and comfortable, as if we'd known him all along. As he guided us through our lesson we found that not only was he a gifted dancer, but a gifted teacher and what we learned was far beyond our expectations. It was not just a dance lesson but a deeply moving and emotional experience that reminded us of the deep connection great partners have -not only in dance but in marriage as well. Thank you, Paul- and we're looking forward our rumba lesson next....”

“Fantastic studio in amazing location. I love the beginner classes on a Thursday evening. Brilliant teaching and great fun. Totally recommend for anyone wanting to learn to dance.”

“The best dance studio in East London with professional teachers and many different style in reasonable prices!”

“I went to pole dance and silks lessons. I really like it and it doesn’t matter which level you’re in, everyone can assist. Absolutely love Raffa's silks lesson. Definitely my favourite!”

“Thursday Pilates class with Josie Kukor was great. This was my first time at Flow, so wasn’t sure what to expect. I am completely out of shape - but Josie was incredibly kind and helpful to get me started. There needs to be more instructors as warm as she is - makes everything so much easier. The dance studio is not pretentious and feels very much like “home”.”

“My daughter has been attending ID for 10 years since she was 4, she absolutely loves it and had made friends for life. They have yearly shows at Questors theatre for the dancers to showcase their talents, my daughter competes all over the country in competitions with them, the pastoral care is second to none, especially after lockdown when they secured free counselling for their teens. So lucky to have them locally…”

“Peter is a great teacher. In a few hours he taught us the routine for the first dance. He listened attentively to our remarks about figures and steps. The atmosphere during the lesson - great! I recommend it very much!”

“The instructors are very good at their craft and welcoming. I would recommend to all”

“Outstanding dance school & amazing teaching for all categories of dance. My daughter has been attending the school for over 6 years and my younger daughter for 2 years. They love going to dance and are making so many happy memories with lovely friends.”

“My daughter has been going to ballet and flamenco classes for 2,5 years. They provide serious training and I see my daughter's skills growing. Anna also successfully prepares students for ballet grade exams. Their flamenco performances are very beautiful. The girls have an opportunity to perform on a real stage 2-4 times a year and build their confidence. The classes are really value for money”

“My daughter has danced with Shani and her team of wonderful teachers since she was tiny. I have watched her confidence go from strength to strength and love seeing her smile when she gets to put on a big show. I would recommend SCD to anyone looking to get their child into dance.”

“Fabulous place to dance locally with a huge variety of classes for all ages... Wonderful, fun and vibrant teachers too!”

“Teachers are amazing so kind and supportive it made me feel special and cared for. Help you with all kinds of difficulties in any dance.”

“Awesome dance classes, little one loves it!! Highly recommend!”

“Brilliant dance school. My daughter has been attending for many years and is so happy and has made amazing progress. Has given her so much confidence. Gemma is so supportive and runs a friendly inclusive lesson for all. Cannot recommend enough.”

“Diamanté is a brilliant and exceptionally talented zumba instructor. Always looking forward to her classes and new routines. Have been attending her classes for a few years now, and never get tired. Highly recommend!”

“We love Diddi dance and we love Mona. So much energy, enthusiasm and fun.”

“Professional approach to learning to dance. We took advantage of the basic course, which we are very pleased with. Tomasz was able to get the group moving and reach everyone. In addition, we had the pleasure of taking individual lessons where we choreographed our first dance. It was hard work, and at the same time a pleasure thanks to the help of the wonderful Mrs. Justyna. A lot of valuable advice and a layout refined in the smallest detail. We highly recommend it to all young couples and those who would like to move and improve their dance skills.”

“My daughter absolutely loves her ballet classes & her ballet teacher! Highly recommend this dance school.”
