“Wonderful Taekwon-Do happening here!”

“My daughter Skye has been dancing at the Loughborough Academy of dance since she was 2.5 years old. She is now 13 years old and has had the opportunity to dance at disneyland paris, London, Blackpool, Drayton Manor, town centre, stock port and various other places. She also does lots of dance festivals in Ibstock, Leicester area. Highly recommend. All the dance teachers commit a lot of their own personal time of which me and my daughter are very grateful of. The passion shown from the school shines through my daughter's dancing. The dance family also put on fun events for the children and families to enjoy for all their hard work.”

“For all the clubs, activities and hobbies that children can take part in I couldn’t recommend this one enough! They learn more than a physical skill! They are taught positive behaviors, emotional understanding, acceptance and more importantly that they are all different, learn differently and all at different paces! My girls love it and as a parent, it is such a positive experience watching them engaging and learning and I’m learning along the way!!!”

“My Daughter has been dancing with the Warrington School Of Dance for the past six years and loves every second! She takes part in their ballet, modern, tap, jazz and lyrical classes. Both Helen and Verity are amazing and supportive teachers and have helped my Daughter build confidence in all areas of her life, not just dancing. She has become part of an amazing 'dance family'. My Daughter has made many close friends through her dancing lessons and has an opportunity to take part in their yearly dance show and exams if she chooses.”

“I have been part of this dance school since it first started and it is absolutely brilliant! The teaching staff are supportive, patient and always willing to help. Unlike many other dance schools, JK School of Dance has a very relaxed friendly atmosphere which greatly relieves the pressure of exams and dance shows. The variety of subjects to take make it so that there is something for everyone. New pupils quickly feel at ease regardless of ability or shyness. Everyone is so friendly and it is a great place to be!”
