Contemporary
Contemporary dance combines the styles of ballet and modern, developing a more natural sense of movement. Contemporary will encourage balance, coordination, flexibility, and strength. This class may also serve as an additional class for those studying for their GCSE Dance examination.
Drama
Drama is a fun class which develops physical performance skills, speech and vocal technique building confidence, self esteem and enables children to work individually and in groups.

Modern
Modern Theatre dance is a highly energetic style of dance which is often seen on television and on stage in musical productions. Modern dance steps include high kicks, leaps and turns as well as improving flexibility and strength complimented by the latest popular music being played.
Musical Theatre
Our musical theatre classes are similar to our modern classes; however, the focus is purely on musicals and the dances that have featured in musicals both past and present such as Beautiful: The Carole King Musical, Chicago, Guys and Dolls.
