We all know stories of people who lavish out on expensive exercise equipment only to be bored and disillusioned a few weeks later. In a health consious society we are all made to feel inadequate in our attempts to keep fit. Dance is a very social activity provided for adult recreation - but how much more interesting than fitness workout. Social dancing is natural positive and rewarding experience.

We have what we believe to be the most comprehensive range of Adult dance classes in the area. These are currently expanding. It seems that once we start one they fill up with dancers' friends. A few years ago we were lucky to have a junior, his dad and his grandad!

Many adults start with Tap. There are many more dance levels in Tap that can be started in separate classes so these are in a constant state of flux.

We can match you to the right level whether you have danced before or you feel you might not be able to manage any dance at all. We are very sympathetic and understand the needs of beginner adults.

Beginners Ballet
5
This is a recreational health and fitness class for those who think they are too old too fat or so far removed from the cover of magazines that their years as a active human being are over - NOT SO!.

For those of you who prove to be better than you thought promotion to Adult-Improvers-Ballet awaits. To everyone else this is just the sort of fun and exercise that you might need. This course is of particular value to those who find health and fitness classes boring and to those bodies finding exercise unfamiliar. Adult beginners also particularly enjoy Tap.

The ladies in the photo are dancers from a mix of beginners, improvers and experienced classes and where dancing at the Summer show in 2006 at Thornden Arts Centre. Dancers do not have to take part in shows if the do not want to but we find that adults are more shy than children, which is a great pity, as the adult performances are always very well recieved. The lessons are taken by qualified dance instructors.
