The 30 Best Dancing in London

“When I first started Sam’s classes, I couldn’t dance at all! I love dancing but I just looked so stiff every time I tried! Sam has helped me through my learning journey by teaching me dance techniques, fundamentals and combos that I will keep forever. His classes has really helped build my confidence and made me a better dancer (I hope!) Would highly recommend Sam!”

“I recently took salsa classes at Salsa Tropical and had a wonderful experience. The instructors were both friendly and knowledgeable, creating a welcoming atmosphere that made learning enjoyable even for a beginner like me. What impressed me most was how well-paced the class progression was - they built skills gradually without rushing through the fundamentals, which helped me feel confident as we moved to more complex steps and combinations. The instructors took time to work with students individually when needed, and their expertise really showed in how they broke down the movements and explained the rhythm. I'd definitely recommend Salsa Tropical to anyone looking to learn salsa in a supportive, well-structured environment.”

“I have three daughters at this dance school ranging from 7 to 14 years old and all I can say is that Tudor Rose has been a home away from home for them. They have made strong friendships and grown to love dance in all its forms. Debbie has been a pillar of strength for each one of them when they were doubting themselves and has shown them that they can be the best of themselves. I highly recommend it to all parents.”

“I am so pleased that I found Streetz Ahead. Penelope absolutely loves coming to street dance and looks forward to it every week. She can’t wait to come home and share everything that she has learnt. The staff have all been amazing, they are all so friendly and helpful and they have helped Penelope to settle really well. It’s amazing to see how much her confidence has grown and lovely to see her having so much fun.”

“I am so happy I finally decided to join ballet classes as an adult, and conveniently this is very close to my home. I just wish I'd found out about it sooner! Very challenging but super fun way to exercise both your body and your mind.”

“Brilliant staff and great atmosphere”

“I am thrilled to share our experience with the ballet and performance classes! This is our second year, and my daughter couldn't be happier. The teachers are truly amazing—dedicated, supportive, and incredibly talented. They create a nurturing environment that encourages the students to express themselves and grow in their skills. We've seen remarkable progress in my daughter's confidence and technique, and it's been a joy to watch her passion for dance flourish. The classes are well-structured and engaging, making learning fun for all the kids. We wholeheartedly recommend these classes to everyone looking for a positive and enriching experience in dance. It's been a wonderful journey for us, and we can't wait to see what the future holds!”

“Marina is an excellent instructor. I have made good progress under her teaching. The studio is spacious, clean and has a good vibe.”

“Really good classes and affordable. Management is very helpful as well. Super team !”

“A must visit for anyone who wants to see our rich tradition of pubs in East London before it's too late. Don't just pose outside making TikTok videos, get yourself multiple pints of beer and make sure you have a good old chinwag with as many people as you can around the tables before getting hoofed out onto the cobbles at closing time. Piano night on a Monday is a great buzz. This place is the only pub I know in inner city London serving Crouch Vale and it's very nice. The ESB will also give you some old strong London flavours if you've never had it before. The staff are cool and I want to see this place stay the same for another 100 years.”

“Wow! Impressive The best made musical which I have seen. Specially that i visited 3 musical for last 7 months in Madrid, Spain. It’s our first show in London so we bought the cheapest tickets and we’re impressed - the level of preparation is incredible - costumes, stage props, lighting, music, lights, actors' voices and dancing are simply amazing! 2,5 hours just flew! Someone says that you feel that 20£ is not enough for this show and I totally agree. One more surprise - view is fine from every part of the theater- we were sitting in balcony and you may see everything perfectly. Maybe small tip is to take the middle part sits. The theater themselves is quite beautiful, so it’s perfectly suits The great Gatsby show. Highly highly recommended”

“One of the best Art schools in London! The team is Amazing and very helpful. Very happy with the teachers as well, as they are very talented, patient and well educated. Highly recommended.”

“Both my girls attend flipside and love it. My oldest has been coming for 8 years now. They’ve both made some great friends, love the teachers and thoroughly enjoy dancing. The shows that Flipside put on, are incredible too. Such a fantastic dance school!”

“Just attended their 6 day summer intensive 2023. It was amazing. Brilliant really! They had a good long day, with a combination of ballet, contemporary and creative dance every day. I enjoyed the end of week show. I made one or 2 friends, teachers were awesome too. The studios are well presented with good flooring. The changing rooms and toilets are unisex but you could enquire ahead like me to have access to a staff toilet or singular disabled toilet if that is more comfortable or needed. At the end I was given a Rambert t-shirt and bag merchandise for attending the intensive. I think I will come back next summer. The area is just lovely too because Rambert Ballet School is just 3 minutes walk to the Richmond Lock over Thames River.”

“My daughter has been going to innovation dance for the past 4 years. Emma and crew have been fantastic supporting her through any tough times she had experienced.my daughter loves the street dance and loves the troup. She has made many friends as the group is a kind and fun way to socialise after school. During covid innovation dance was amazing providing zoom lessons and interacting so much that she never felt alone. My daughter continues to dance of a weekend as school works abit full on during the week, anyone that's looking for a fun caring environment for their child and if they have a interest in dance then I 100 percent recommend them joining this fab studio. shows at questors is fantastic and I'm so pleased my child has been a part of this team as its built her strength stamina and agility that she would not have acquired had she not had the opportunity to dance here. I thank Emma and team as they are literally the best that I know Monique barker”

“First class training. Professional environment. I achieved a degree in 3 years. BA, life changing.”

“I cannot thank Miss Ari and Eos Dance school enough for the ongoing support my daughter received. Due to personal circumstances we had to relocate to London and whilst staying in a temporary accommodation, I reached out to Miss Ari enquiring about a concession for my daughter, explaining how much she loved Balet. Miss Ari was very understanding and accommodating. The enrolment process was easy enough to follow. She even provided the uniform and offered extra classes to my little ballerina. My daughter loves miss Ari and still remembers her teacher. We have now moved to another area in London and although my daughter no longer attends Eos Dance school due to the distance involved, she still carries on with Balet and I am forever grateful for the support we received at the most difficult time in our lives. Would definitely recommend Eos Dance School to everyone.”

“Very welcoming academy. I have been student for half a year and I am very happy with the teachers and with the relaxed and fun environment for learning. I have had Newton and Katrina as regular teachers for months, and I would totally recommend both as they are very nice, patient and fun to learn from.”

“Shaan is an excellent instructor and is highly recommended. As a 62 year old man accompanying his wife on a birthday gift idea I was apprehensive about the idea of a beginner’s class, not least about dancing with others. But I need not have worried. It was relaxed, structured, instructive and, above all, a good laugh. Give it a go, especially if you’re concerned about your first dance class.”

“Two studios. Finished to a lovely standard. Run by past champion Mathew Cutler and evening lating practices with music from the best DJ in the world - Greg de Vet.”

“I can't recommend this fabulous dance school enough, my daughter has been dancing here for 13 years , it's simply the best . The opportunity's that these children have are amazing. Performing on cruise ships , Disney, Haven and in the west end . The teachers bring the best out of each child . Adult classes are also available which i also attend . Communication is always good , we are kept informed at every step with emails and can always talk to staff if needed. Lucy Lovick and her team are brilliant ❤️ 5 stars from me and Katie x”

“Great classes, great teacher, great vibe!! I have to thank DSantosUk and Richard for not just learning about mazing different dance moves but for all the awesome experience it has been since I've joined more than an year ago. It's great to meet new people, places and simply have fun. Thank you!”

“I’ve just started my second course with Hasina as this is exactly what I was looking for! Choreo oriented belly dancing lessons give you a great pace of learning and enjoyment. I love every second of it and highly recommend to anyone wanting to try some classes”

“Such an incredible place to train pole dancing. The owner Veronica is an amazing instructor who puts her heart into teaching and making her students better and better each time. I had an incredible time when I was going there, I could see a great improvement in my strength and flexibility over only a couple of months. The atmosphere at the studio is super friendly, the instructors are lovely and helpful. The studio itself is well looked after, clean and spacious. There's always water and snacks available for students. I never experienced any problems when attending classes at Exotica Pole Dance and if I could, I'd spend all my time there. It's the best place to go to if you want to become a great pole dancer.”

“I had the 6-course menu for lunch, and everything I ate was delicious. I drank a glass of champagne and was pleasantly surprised to have received a cake for my birthday. The service was impeccable, and the setting was beautiful. I absolutely loved it.”

“Great experience finding this gem of a shop and the very helpful lads that work there. My son has been searching for a yoyo, and we couldn't have picked a better place to get one. The staff showed him the best beginner option, how to use it, fit and cut the string for him, and included a little booklet of instructions and tricks. He's had it one day, and he's having loads of fun with it. Thanks to the staff for giving him such a great experience.”

“My daughter really likes this school! Professional teachers who always put their heart and soul into working with children. Very surprised by the bad reviews! We were delighted with the concert! It's worth every penny paid for it. I highly recommend this school”

“My daughter has been attending the holiday camps at the Rosy Thompson Academy of Dance for a few years now. The camps are energetic, engaging and offer a great balance between having fun, confidence building and the opportunity to make new friends of a similar age. My daughter certainly enjoys the camps! Watching her perform in the end of week mini show is a great opportunity to witness first hand the progress she has made..... and the smile on her face!”

“We attended a private commercial/hip-hop dance class for a hen do and everything was excellent! The Events Team were very responsive and reliable throughout the booking process. Our dance class was with Wallis who was fabulous! She had an amazing energy which put us all at ease and got us in the mood! She choreographed a fab routine that perfectly suited our mixed-ability/experience group and we all had so much fun. It’s definitely made us want to come back for some of her regular classes in the future! Would highly recommend!”

“I was thoroughly impressed by the facilities at Unit3 studios. The studio is incredibly spacious, never feeling crowded. What stands out the most is the impeccable cleanliness – the floors, mirrors, and change rooms are always spotless. The sound system is high-quality, and the ventilation is excellent, so it never gets stuffy. Dancing here feels like a luxury. It’s clear that great thought has been put into creating a comfortable and inspiring space.”
