Top Tips for


easy travelling... Plan ahead • allow plenty of time and try to be relaxed.


• if you are stressed or trying to get somewhere in a hurry, your child will pick up on this and is likely to become stressed too, as a result!


Be prepared Whatever the length of the journey, always take:


• a Journey Bag – a small bag to include spare nappies, wipes, kitchen towel, antiseptic cream, Calpol, plasters and a couple of spare plastic bags (always come in handy!).


• plenty of drinks & snacks – helpful if your journey is delayed.


• essential changes of clothing – there’s nothing worse than if your little one has a little accident and you can’t change them!


• portable potty.


• for longer journeys, take a blanket - for your child to snuggle into.


Take entertainment & activities


• For short trips - small cuddly and other toys (cars, dolls etc); books, including puzzle books; colouring pads, crayons and stickers.


• For longer journeys - travel games, snap cards, connect etc; music or story CDs; electronic games and DVD players – with spare batteries and car chargers! Your children may also enjoy playing traditional travel games with you like “I Spy.”


We teach the following:


• Ballet • Modern • Tap • Street Dance


We accept students from 3 years old to adult. All parents know that children learn so much better when they are enjoying themselves and we make sure that this enjoyment is conveyed, not just in our kids’ classes but right the way through the age range.


All our students are invited to take regular examinations in their chosen discipline. As well as working through the graded system, performance medals are also taken and the school show, which brings all the branches together, is performed every 2 years.


Our aim is to give our students a skill that will be with them for life, to develop an understanding and love of dance. In many cases, our students have gone on to become professional dancers and teachers.
