Dance classes for beginners in Manchester

“Chestnut Theatre School is just fantastic! My daughter has been going for two years, and it's been amazing to see her come out of her shell. She used to be so shy, but now she's much more confident and loves going to her drama classes. The teachers are so kind and really know how to make the kids feel good about themselves. It's not just about acting; it's like a little confidence boost every week! If you have a shy kiddo, I highly recommend giving Chestnut Theatre School a try – it's made a real difference for us!”

“Wayne is a fantastic coach & professional. He is knowledgeable and is passing this knowledge & professionalism onto our students. A great host for our students & an even better person. Richardson Sport has given our staff & our students a huge insight into Elite Sport in Football but also Olympic Sports. 5* +”

“Zero gravity has honestly changed my life in so many ways. I joined zero gravity just over a year a go with no confidence, no body strength and definitely a lot of extra weight. Since joining my confidence has improved dramatically, I have lost over 3 stone in weight and I still surprise myself every lesson with how much stronger I am. All the instructors are absolutely amazing! They fill you with so much confidence and are so helpful and encouraging. If there is anything you want to work on or improve on they are always there to help. They offer so many different types of workshops and classes from stretch to flow to handstands and believe me I have tried them all. My flexibility has progressed unbelievably since joining there stretch classes. There pole classes are so enjoyable and everyone is so encouraging of each other. It feels just like a family. They even offer private classes where you can choose areas to work on or help with progression. There is literally something for everyone! Absolutely love being a Gravity Girl!”

“I recently attended an advanced music production course at SEM Manchester and was thoroughly impressed by the entire experience. For anyone looking to take their music production skills to the next level, I highly recommend this School. From first contact with Mark, my specific learning goals were given priority and I was put in touch with my instructor, Jordan Peacock who was simply superb at explaining complex concepts in a clear and engaging way and patient with questions and provided valuable feedback throughout the course. The course covered a wide range of advanced music production techniques and was expertly structured providing ample opportunity for hands-on practice. I certainly felt I had significantly levelled up by the end The studio space was well-equipped with professional grade software and hardware, allowing me to work with industry-standard tools and get real-world experience. I found the atmosphere at SEM Manchester really positive and encouraging. I felt very comfortable among tutors who clearly shared my passion for music production. Overall, my experience at SEM Manchester was exceptional and the skills I gained are already improving my music.”

“My daughter absolutely loves coming to Footlights. The increase in her confidence was clear to see within a few weeks and I'm thrilled we found Footlights for her.”

“Great football pitches, parking can be tight but there's also a school car park across the road from it.”

“Amazing service, me and my friend just both got a piercing. I got a double helix with hoops and my friend got her belly button pierced. Gaz talked us through the whole process, he put my anxiety to ease, after I had a bad previous experience with an infected piercing. They both look amazing, prices were nice, and we got talked through the aftercare as well. The lady was also very helpful regarding the piercing and jewellery choosing explaining the options and how the option would affect me. Amazing service, will go again, highly recommend it!”

“Lovely staff help run this place. The Monday and Thursday baby class and toddler groups are fantastic”

“A very pleasant evening spent here. Most of this theatre is very old but kept quite fresh with the cleanliness. I didn't come across any mustiness that the old cinema had (that was) down the road. Staff were as nice and friendly. A few sound difficulties, but the actors were able to broadcast their voices around.”
