There are waiting facilities available at all venues, however we don’t allow mum’s & dad’s to wait in the ballroom where the class takes place as this can be distracting for the children. We have separate waiting lounge areas.
Do we enter into competitions?
No, we don’t enter any of our pupils into these, we believe dancing should be great fun & affordable. We prefer to specialise in making sure you have a great time at dance classes.
