The Vera Frances School of Dance

We are the longest running dance school in the March area having now been running for over 60 years!

The school was first opened in London by Vera Frances in 1947 after a 7-year career as a child actress in Films and Stage. In 1953, after marriage, the school moved to East Anglia and opened in the town of March where it has remained to this day.

Today the school is run by Vera Frances and daughter Lynda Ward-Cray. Both are Fully Registered teachers of:
The Royal Academy of Dance, (RAD)
The International Dance Teachers Association, (IDTA)
The United Kingdom Alliance, (UKA)
Both hold full enhanced disclosure CRB checks.

Continuing the family theme Lynda’s son, Iain Ward, now a professional Actor, remains part of the school both as a dancer, assistant teacher and stage technician for our shows.
