Dance competitions
Children who excel in dancing may enjoy taking part in competitions. We belong to the All England Dance Association which organises local dance festivals where students compete in a range of classes performing a solo, duet, or trio in Tap, Ballet, Modern, Greek, Character and Song and dance. Marks are awarded and students achieving high marks are invited to enter the Regional Finals. From there some competitors get to compete at National level in London for the finals.
We also enter groups in all genres and ages.
Children who wish to enter competitions need to achieve good exam results and really enjoy performing on their own. Younger children from 4 years who enjoy dancing may also enter.
Amelia and Libby won a Silver medal in the National Finals in London in 2009
In order to progress, students take additional classes on Saturdays to extend their training. This includes extra ballet, limbering, jazz and pilates for seniors.
