Creative arts in Manchester

“Our daughter has been attending the nursery since she was 1 and her confidence and communication has improved so much. We are so happy with her key worker and all of the staff at the nursery.”

“Lovely nursery. Our little one has loved the environment and has built up great relationships with the other children and the staff. The nursery is a great setting for children to explore and the staff make a special effort to get to know each childs wants/needs/preferences. Would recommend!”

“My daughter absolutely loves dancing here. She's been made to feel so welcome coming from another dance school and fitted in so well straight away. Shes come on in leaps and bounds. Miss Sally is just so lovely too. She's so good with the girls. They all love her. It's so good to see. Like a family. And I've made some lovely friends there too with the dance mum's. X”

“Amazing place! Completely in love with the atmosphere, instructors and classes! They make you welcome, make you laugh, you end up being part of a massive family. It's not a dance school, it's a community. Classes are catered for all abilities so even if you think you can't dance, they'll teach you step by step with patience and a good enough pace, you just need to commit to it. You'll make new friends and have loads of great time. You dont need to worry you don't have a partner as you'll dance with everyone in your class!!”

“Amazing studio full of a range of classes, welcoming and fun atmosphere, always recommend to my friends!”

“My 2 girls have been dancing here since the school opened and they absolutely love it! There are so many classes to choose from, starting at baby classes for the little ones to acro dance class and street dance and then freestyle and Latin too! The teachers and principal are so welcoming and really do pay so much attention to all the children and make them feel like they can achieve anything. Couldn’t recommend it enough!”

“Just had my son’s 3rd birthday at Little Bees/Studio 96 and couldn’t recommend it more. It was the easiest party ever, we just brought the cake. They sorted decoration, food and party bags (which were brilliant). The space is perfect for free play for a big group of kids and everyone loved it. Staff are so kind and helpful too. Thank you so much for the best afternoon.”

“Atomic is an amazing dance school with a warm, positive atmosphere and truly talented instructors. Both my daughter and I really enjoy our classes there. It’s a place where we feel welcomed, encouraged, and excited to learn. Highly recommend for dancers of any age!”

“My 6-year-old daughter took part in a 4-day holiday club at Little Voices this summer. Despite it being her first time there and not knowing any of the other children beforehand, she came running out on the first day with a big smile, excitedly sharing stories about her "new friends!" At the end of the week, parents were invited to watch the children's performance, and it was truly remarkable! Every child had a chance to shine in their own unique way, which was delightful to watch. Little Voices is such a nurturing environment and there was absolutely no pressure on the children over the 4 days, as some might worry about; the focus was on having fun—and my daughter certainly did that! We will be back, for sure. Thank you, Laura...you are amazing!”

“Corey has been a member of Stage and Screen since March when he joined part way through the rehearsals for The Sound of Music having been cast as the role of Max. We honestly can not speak highly enough of Sophie and Matt and all the staff at Stage and screen. They have nurtured and encouraged Corey to be the best he can be on stage whilst making every weekly session enjoyable. The end of year performance of The Sound of Music was just amazing, super professional with great casting and so much talent! I would also like to add that Corey has made a great group of new friends who have the same common interest and champion/encourage eachother along the way. Corey absolutely loves going to rehearsals and can not wait to be part of the next show Legally Blonde whilst also being part of the stage and screen community. I can not thank you enough for giving Corey a great platform to continue his love of performing in musical theatre.”

“We have had such a lovely experience at Eco babes and would definitely recommend. Our daughter started April this year and has settled in great. The staff are all lovely, caring and happy to chat about how she's got on that day.”

“My son started here at 9 months old and settled so well into the baby room. Becky was so caring and tried to adapt everything to his usual routine and had a great understanding of his likes and dislikes. The key worker system worked brilliant. Michelle knows every child throughout the nursery and is always there for support.”

“We had an absolutely brilliant time ! Me and my friends ( students ) had a great afternoon. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and helpful. Plenty of time to paint and so many great resources, will definitely be going again. Thank you ❤️”

“Incredible tattoo by dean Gunther. You can't even see he covered it up. Absolutely incredible artist”

“First time in today, Alba was fantastic and I absolutely love the final result. Than you guys for making me feel totally relaxed. I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend them ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Neill started my greek god tattoo sleeve, to say I am impressed is an understatement! From design, to quality of his work, I will never use anybody else! Great guy, great work, just a great experience all round!”

“Steve, Dave and the team have hit the nail on the head with this place. I’ve been coming to these guys for nearly 10 years now and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Exceptional work, great service and attention to detail and always well looked after be it your first tattoo or the last, always recommend!”

“Been and got many piercings here! I have never had any issues the guys who work here are lovely! Got my first tattoo booked in for November so I am sure I will update this review once done! Only good things to say about MonsterInk”

“Took my neice for her first piercing (navel) here, Lee was absolutely incredible, took time to make sure placement and bar length were perfect. The entire process was smooth and we couldnt ask for a better experience. We returned a few weeks later just for reassurance on the healing, and Lee was once again fantastic at putting our minds at ease. Thank you so much! We won't go anywhere else for piercings now. ♥️”

“Amazing tattoos and great experience overall, amazing staff”

“Luna executed my idea perfectly!!! I felt safe and comfortable in the studio despite the long session and absolutely adore my new tattoo. Aftercare guide was sent within the hour my tattoo was completed. I will be recommending Flesh Chambers & will definitely be back!!! ”

“Ash was absolutely fantastic, the cover up she did was unreal. She made sure I was comfortable through out.”

“Amazing tattoo place. Staff very friendly and professional. Big shout out to Hayley aka dogtaz did an amazing job on my daughter’s first tattoo Hayley made her feel comfortable and reassured her all the way through. Amazing work thank you.”

“Mez you did a fantastic job of revamping my old faded tattoos….initially I didn’t really know what I wanted but Mez worked with me and with his expertise and professionalism transformed them into something just magical, I’m extremely pleased with the outcome. The Tattoo Station studio is clean, comfortable, well equipped and tastefully decorated with plenty of nice pieces of art to feast your eyes on whilst being tattooed. I can highly recommend Mez’s place he’s a knowledgeable artist and would say to anyone thinking about their next piece to go there. I can confirm the whole experience was amazing from start to finish, thank you so much.”

“Well overdue and well deserved 5*! After discovering Symone via instagram, she worked with me to create my dream tattoo. Throughout the process, Symone was super responsive, providing updates along the way and always kept me in the loop with her design progress and creative ideas. The studio is gorgeous, a super relaxed space where I felt comfortable and safe. Symone answered all my (probably annoying) questions and made me feel at ease the whole time. 3 day sittings later I have a gorgeous, permanent art piece and I will be back for more. Highly recommend!”

“Had all my recent tattoos done here. Excellent service, great artists and an exceptional experience I won't go anywhere else”

“Jenna did my debut arm tat yesterday. Very relaxed studio vibe; friendly, warm, welcoming family outfit. Place was absolutely spotless and most importantly, the Dawsons are a family of incredibly skilled artists - how lucky we are to have them locally! Thrilled with my new bassoon-keywork ink - been on a high since. Jenna made sure the placement was absolutely right and the precision of the artwork itself is perfect. I can not single out one negative in the whole experience. Will definitely be back!”

“I was having some trouble with 2 piercings i had done less local to me, which had got infected and the ball had come off one of them. I came to inkspire in a panic looking for advice, and the piercer professionally cleaned all of my piercings on that ear and put the ball back on for me - free of charge. I can’t recommend inkspire enough for their professionalism and kindness.”

“Last night, I called in for a takeaway pizza. There was a tiny issue with the timing as the place was so busy but it was absolutely nothing to concern myself about. But ,because of this, the young lady serving me, Victoria, could not have been more helpful. I left wood fire smoke with a smile on my face only get home to eat the usual delicious pizza that I always order. If you have never been to this restaurant, then it’s time you did. I wholeheartedly recommend it as the pizzas are the best in town and staff are lovely.”

“Absolutely brilliant!Collection, drop off and service all in 24hrs. Very reasonable prices. Despite being a 10 year old vacuum cleaner that’s been battered a bit ,works like new. Thanks Spud”
