The 30 Best Dance school in Brighton and Hove

“Great dancing school, my daughter has been going to WWSD for the last 5 years and loves it. Wendy and all the teachers are so lovely, would highly recommend this school.”

“We booked the wedding package for our first dance and it’s one of the best decisions we’ve made for our wedding! Justine is perfect for helping us newbies learn a beautifully choreographed routine that is relatively simple (not saying it was easy) while looking sophisticated at the same time! Her patience and professionalism helped smooth a major part of our special day. Thank you Justine!”

“I joined contemporary beginner adult classes here in January 2024, and have been hooked ever since. Really welcoming and warm environment, and tailored to different abilities. Lee has been an excellent teacher and is great at giving detailed and constructive feedback, pushing us to develop and learn to the best of our abilities. Can't recommend it highly enough.”

“My daughter, age 4, has just started her second term of Stage Coach and loves it. She happily goes in every week and did a fantastic show for us at Christmas. The team that put it all together are incredible. Would highly recommend Stage Coach Hove. Thank you Rebecca.”

“When I started ballet as a 40 year old adult I assumed I would find a class in which we would just have a bit of fun and not really learn much and not be challenged. How wrong I was. At Brighton Ballet School vocational students and adults are treated the same. We are challenged to work hard, to push ourselves, to find the best of ourselves and to never accept the words "I can't". Taking exams is an wonderful added extra which allows us to see how far we have come in our dancing. And as well as all this - we also have fun and make new friends. If you just want to muck around for an hour then I'd suggest other places. But if you wish to have fun, get fit and strong and unleash your inner ballet dancer then this school is for you.”

“Remember going here in the 70,s was great and pleased still going”

“Absolutely love this company. I joined 2 years ago and within that time my confidence has been lifted so much. I hadn’t done much dance at all before I joined, but now I have improved. All the staff are lovely and push you to be your best whilst still having fun. I really enjoy the professionalism that we are given as it gives us better insight on what it’s actually like in the theatre industry. Definitely would recommend!”

“Clare is a wonderful teacher. Our hooping class on Mondays is always stimulating, fun and the right amount of challenging. I have learned lots since I started here last year. Thank you Clare for creating such a nurturing space for us attending!”

“Wonderful classes and a SUPER high standard of teaching. The whole team are caring and professional and I look forward to the shows each year!”

“no one can say no to funk, streetfunk lighten up your soul! best in uk!”

“Absolutely fantastic for ballet,tap and musical theatre my daughters attend and have from the start and their confidence has grown and they love their lessons so much all the staff are Brilliant and so easy to talk to!”

“Good ballet school one of the best in Brighton.”

“My daughter has been learning ballet with Miss Deborah since just after covid. She cannot wait for her ballet lesson each week. She had some extra prep for her exam recently and I was extremely impressed with the enthusiasm , attention to detail & technique and standards Muss Deborah encouraged my daughter to aim for - this is definitely life skill teaching along with a wonderful love of ballet and dance . The showcase this summer was eye opening for both of us - it was very obvious the care and pride Miss Deborah ( and Miss Sian ) have for each student. My daughter has now convinced me to let her start musical theatre dance and she’s hoping to join modern and double her ballet before long !! She describes her ballet as ‘ super fun with some great challenges , lovely friends and music taught by the best teachers ‘. She’s made me download the RAD Grade 2 app she’s so excited about the new term and what it will bring ! If anyone is looking to enrol their child in a dance school don’t hesitate.”

“Really pleased with IDTA services. Always very helpful.”

“Recently started going to the Zumba class here it's great fun and a very good teacher a good way to keep fit.”

“Lovely dance school, would highly recommend!”

“My daughter loves going to Lucy’s dance class. Lucy makes the classes really fun and engaging for the children!”

“I've been to many different classes in the UK and other countries, and this one's hands down in the top of my list. Kornelia creates a magical atmosphere where everyone is welcome. Every choreography is like a mini performance rather than a number of movements; they are challenging, but are broken down into small pieces; self expression is super encouraged, there is no 3-4-5 counting - Kornelia teaches how to listen to the music and feel it. Her choreos help tell a story and create a certain vibe depending on the song. I had never felt so confident, feminine, and not afraid to make a mistake in any other class before.”

“Galit is a wonderful teacher , very professional and teaches high level of technique. Her choreographies are always varied and well planned. The classes are vibrant and fun. Galit charges you with amazing energy and inspires you to dance with passion. Her classes have made me aware of my posture, improved my balance and muscular tone and had really positive effect on my wellbeing!”

“I arranged a burlesque class here as part of a hen do and the whole experience was amazing! Rebecca was so communicative, no question or request too much trouble, and the class itself was perfect! The whole group had an amazing time, Rebecca is a brilliant teacher, so accommodating and so much fun! Highly recommend!”

“Ceroc Hove changed my life 6 years ago. I was so nervous but it turned out I was meeting the most wonderful people and who are still amazing friends after all these years. I am an IT guy with 2 left feet and learning to partner dance is fantastic. I went alone on my first night, so come along or with a friend. Highly recommended. Learning to lead a follow changes you overtime as a person, more confidence, coordination and Thursdays at Hove are an absolute thrill.”

“Just been to their jam in the Brighton Youth Centre in Brighton. Such an amazing atmosphere they create there in a second. Group dance, battle, freestyle, DJ and ice cream. These guys really bring that street dance feeling as it's best. My daughter has enjoyed every seconds of it and she wants to go back every time. So we will.”

“Katie's class is so welcoming. Katie caters for all levels, we work and dance and her smile and energy are contagious. I highly recommend her classes for pleasure, fitness and fun.”

“My daughter loves coming to ESD! (I also go to Alex’s 1:1 ballroom class). Classes always fun, engaging, inspiring. Brilliant teaching. Highly recommend.”

“I have been dancing with Rachel for a number of years now and I can highly recommend her classes. I am in the Tuesday intermediate tap class which is a lot of fun and inclusive, and no one is left behind (which is good for me as I never thought I would be able to tap dance).”

“Great studio. Some three years in this is my introduction to Ballroom and Latin. Fun and welcoming.”

“Wonderful facility! Ana is lovely and the organisation is professional and fab. Highly recommend”

“Small classes, very attentive to the needs of each student. My daughter enjoys her classes and made really good friends there.”
