We are a friendly, family orientated dance school. Our teachers have all been with us since childhood and they have all progressed through the exam system until qualification, starting with the student exam and finally the Professional exam.
We have been teaching at the dancentre for over 50 years, and we were very proud when we were notified as being 5th in the world for exam business with the I.D.T.A.
