Established by Laura Jakes in May 1993 Danceworks, which is located in Moortown offers a wide range of classes for both girls and boys (aged 5+), which include Ballet, Tap (from age 6), Modern and Street Jazz. Classes are taught by highly qualified teachers who have qualifications with R.A.D and I.S.T.D.
The Aim of Danceworks is for children to have fun but to learn in a disciplined environment. Children can take exams with Royal Academy of Dance in Ballet. Tap and Modern with Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing. Children also have an exciting opportunity to perform on stage in the bi-annual show at a professional theatre.
Danceworks are proud to promote boys in dance.
Danceworks classes take place Monday – Saturday, for more details on class times click here.
For pre-school (3-5 years) children Danceworks run Dancebugs which is a great introduction to dance, using stories and imagination the children learn fundamental skills. Balance, co-ordination and rhythm are all learnt in a fun based class. The class is a stepping stone to all other types of dance e.g ballet, tap and street dance.
