Dance competition preparation in London

“I attend the adult contemporary jazz class & I cannot recommend it enough! If you are thinking you would like to give it a go do not hesitate. The classes are well structured & prepared. The weekly choreography is well pitched & always gives you a good challenge, you leave the class on a high with a sense of achievement & a smile on your face. The teacher, Elodie, never falters in her enthusiasm, passion & commitment to the class & helping all her students to improve & grow in confidence, thank you!”

“This the most fun and inclusive dance class I have ever attended! Anna makes the classes fun and will detail every single step until everyone can dance the routine. Everyone is welcoming and helpful and there is no shame in asking questions or struggling with the steps. Would definitely recommend in a heart beat to anyone fed-up of stuck up classes that go too fast!”

“The past three years at PPA have been the best of my life. It was my first time living away from home but from the first day all of the staff were welcoming, friendly and caring. Training at PPA has given me so many opportunities to further myself in this career through acting, singing and musicianship and in my life as a person. I learned so much from being a student here, the most important lesson being that you should always be yourself because that is the best part about you. PPA gave me the care and support to find out who I was as a performer and as a person. PPA was a better college than I could ever have hoped for and from being here I have gained a family that I never knew I needed.”

“My daughter joined in September 2018 and has progressed really well attaining 80% in her 1st grade 1 ballet exam in June 2019. Many thanks to a fantastic teacher, Maria who groomed my daughter for such a great success. I definitely recommend Lyric dance school to All.”

“Why be ordinary when you could be exceptional? Urdang gives the tools to become outstanding!”

“Easily the best dance studios in London and probably the World. Have been sending dancers to classes here for over 20 years. Great friendly and edgy atmosphere. All studios with mirrirs, barre, sound systems and pianos. Varying sizes across 4 floors. Literally every type of dance class from beginners ballet and jazz to West end companies and reggaeton. Studios can be hired for very reasonable prices but they are busy. Classes range in price and you can join as a member. Highly recommended.”

“SLDS is a wonderful dance school! We enrolled our daughter when she was 5 and there she stayed until now, at the age of 18 (it was at a different venue then, under a different name). She experienced all genres that were offered and excelled at most. She took part in several of their shows and presentation of class work; as well as competing in some dance festivals, where she won several medals. She wasn't the most outgoing child but these experiences helped her mature into a determined young woman who is responsible and disciplined. It also gave her a life long love of exercise! Through the 13 years she was there she made friends and had a fantastic time. She counts present and past teachers as her friends as well. After a period of indecision she decided against pursuing a career in dance, but we are sure she will carry on dancing wherever life takes her. When researching universities, dance was always a consideration. And talking universities, the several advanced level exam certificates she holds now add extra UCAS points for her applications. I highly recommend SLDS to anyone who would wish to introduce their child to dance. Thank you to all the teachers and to Miss Zoe for their amazing dedication. C&J”

“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!”

“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”

“Amazing Dance, Gymnastics and tap school my daughter has been there since 3 years old now nearly 7 absolutely loves it.”

“My 2 daughters have been going to these classes since they were 4 years old. They have made great friends, had great exercise and stamina and competed in various competitions over the years. The classes are very well Managed and suitable for children of all abilities. Would definitely recommend to anyone interested in their child learning how to Irish dance”

“A great school of dance! My 2yo daughter loves going every weekend and talks about Alyssia every day.”

“The best ballet class in town! I couldn't recommend Miss Georgina and her classes more highly.”

“The Swing Out Clinic with Sharon Davis was awesome! Every point that was covered was done in a very inclusive and engaging manner and the notes that Sharon shared with us (which included some homework, by the way) were very comprehensive and useful. I am looking forward to trying out all the great things that I learnt on the day!”

“This is a great Ballet School. I have been attending since I was 5 years old. I am now 13. I have enjoyed every minute of my lessons. Ms Sarah offers a lot of help always and especially when it comes to getting ready for each exam at each stage. I am now working towards my Grade 5 exam. Thank You Ms Sarah for all your help - Kirsty Miller”

“Amazing Irish dance school... I would even say the best in London :)”

“I learnt to dance here in the late 70s and it was excellent. I am just so happy to see that it is still going.”

“2019 I took a shy little girl to try out street dance, Andrew saw she worried and anxious, she stood holding his hand most the lesson, but said she wanted to give it a go the next week. Over the weeks/years Andrew has instilled confidence and self belief that she could do it. Skip forward to 2023 she has grown in confidence and absolutely loves dancing at Street vibes. She’s danced in shows, competitions, workshops, fundays and at Disneyland Paris. We feel like we are part of the street vibes family, she can’t wait to go to classes each week. X”

“My husband gave me 4 private dance lessons for our wedding anniversary ( 30th!) . We are both completely hopeless but wanted to learn ‘a dance’ so we didn’t look too terrible at our daughter’s wedding. Anastasia is endlessly patient and hey presto… we can already waltz and cha cha cha… 2 more lessons to go.”

“My three daughters all attend various classes here and love it. They have fun but are worked hard by the teachers who also nurture and motivate them. We all feel part of the Robyn Academy dance family.”

“Amazing dance school with great teachers. Amazing and friendly community. Professional dance teachers and great lessons. I recommend this dance school.”
