The 30 Best Dance instructor training in Manchester

“My daughter really enjoys her classes with Heatherlea. Jo, Jade, Olivia and all the student helpers but in so much effort every week. The shows are also a real highlight!”

“Laura choreographed our wedding dance for us and it was an amazing experience from start to finish! We loved every second of learning the dance at Laura’s beautiful dance school and it was amazing to be able to show the dance to our friends and family on the wedding day. It was really special for Laura to choreograph our dance as I’m an ex student of Laura’s. We would highly recommend Laura for all of your dancing needs whether you’re looking for wedding dance classes, adult classes or classes for your child.”

“I wanted to get my 8 year old into something to keep her active and something she enjoys as seen her dancing a lot when watching you tube. Searched on google as you do and came across JD dance and it was the best thing I ever did. The staff are amazing the owner Jenny is wonderful and everyone who is a part of JD dance are so welcoming feel a part of a big family now and would recommend to anyone.”

“I’ve been attending Jerry and Yuta’s bachata class on Tuesdays for 6 months, I would like to continue dancing with them but have to stop due to personal reasons. They are definitely my favorite bachata teachers in Manchester, professional, caring and funny, never felt bored or left behind in their classes, also they organize events with some interesting themes every now and then, such as, Hawaii party, back to school party, etc. If you’re a bachata/ salsa dance lover, and got a chance to visit Manchester, don’t miss their classes.”

“Swing north is a fun and friendly place to go to learn to swing dance and meet new people. It is brilliantly run, totally inclusive, with new fun lessons and events being introduced regularly! A fantastic community of kind and musical people. A joy to be part of!”

“Absolutely amazing dance teachers! They are so patient and caring towards the children but still manage to make it super fun! Amanda hosted the best dance party for us! Everything was so thought out, it was a breeze for me as a parent. Amanda tailored everything to my daughter's tastes and needs I can't thank her enough. Definitely recommend for dance classes and dance parties!!”

“Footsteps is a wonderful dance school for all abilities. With excellent leadership the teachers care for each dancers needs and ensure the children have fun. The shows are a highlight and show case the passion and enthusiasm that is captured during the lessons. If your child is curious about dancing or a keen dancer already I would highly recommend Footsteps Dance School. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed nearly 10 years dancing with Footsteps.”

“I cannot rate this dance school enough. My daughter had her ballet exam there yesterday and the staff were terrific. There was a pre-exam rehearsal and free ballet bun making if required. The staff really care about the children while setting the bar high. Thanks Miss Kerry and Miss Stalder!”

“My daughter joined the danced studio about 3 years ago and the confidence it has gave her is amazing. The teachers are amazing and they include all the dancers and no one ever gets left out. All the children help each other out and praise each other with learning. Best decision I made to allow my daughter to attend here”

“Brilliant dance school, very safe and welcoming.”

“Absolutely love Holly Hulton’s dance school! My daughter has been going for nearly two years now and still looks forward to every class. Miss Holly is an amazing teacher — so kind, and brilliant with the kids. The atmosphere is always positive and fun, and you can really see how much the children grow in confidence. Highly recommend!”

“My daughter has been with Kings Dance Academy since it opened its doors. She likes going and has met a lot of nice people. I also attend the parents classes when they are ok and I enjoy them. I highly recommend King’s Dance Academy. Teachers are great with the kids.”

“I've been to a lot of different classes here over the years, and the teaching quality has always been great. They've got a ton of nice equipment (which they keep *very* clean), and lessons are always well planned out to challenge each person in the class. I've also done occasional private lessons to work on specific goals, and they've been really helpful each time. The instructors are friendly and approachable, and I'd absolutely recommend Bodybarre to people at any level of fitness. Lots of fun to be had!”

“We love KAS Academy. We have been coming for years, ballet, acrobatics, drama and contemporary dance lessons, all excellent! We also love the school holiday camps, such a great experience and the family get to enjoy an amazing show at the end. Highly recommended!”

“The work lane dance academy put in to the children is amazing. They are very patient, encourage the children to join in and are very very talented at what they do. They invest so much time into the shows. It’s a lovely dance school and would recommend it to everyone”

“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!!”

“We have just done a private salsa class with Jordan and can honestly say it was one of the most incredible and uplifting hours of our lives. Jordan is an outstanding teacher with lots of lovely energy guiding us through steps and making us feel comfortable and we had the most fun. Thank you so much! We can’t recommend Jordan any more ❤️”

“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!”

“I attended Cadmans for their Adult Ballroom and Latin class yesterday evening after 13 years of not dancing! I can honestly say I had such a brilliant time - the dance staff are so welcoming and put me at ease, I can’t wait to continue a Thursday evening! Fully recommend for those wanting to return or pick up a new skill x”

“My daughter has attended the dance school for 9 years and currently takes classes 5 days per week. It’s her home from home and she thoroughly enjoys the challenge of the classes and the interactions she has with her teachers and classmates. The variety of class types available is great, including musical theatre which my daughter loves. The encouragement and careful teaching has allowed my daughter to excel and progress through grades gaining high marks at each step. The highlight of our Summer is always the week of Summer School!”

“Turners is an amazing school. We travel across the Pennines to be apart of this wonderful professional dance school. My daughter has danced at turners for several years and has gained not only friendships but awards and has been given ample opportunities and experiences. They treat their students with respect and praise and put everything in to achieving such high standards. Highly recommend dance school with amazing teachers.”

“I joined Rachel Stanton School of Dance recently after having many years of ballet background, and I dance more confidently due to Rachel’s amazing teaching, the ballet classes are very comfortable and you can tell Rachel is very passionate about teaching. My technique has improved lots and it’s a great environment to learn in! Thanks”

“My daughter attends this school and it is an amazing dance school. She is currently in a show organised by Golden Dance Studios themselves called ' Step into Broadway' at The Royal Northern College of Music. I went to see the performance last night and was astounded at how amazing the dancers all were. Very well organised professional business. Would definatley recommend.”

“Excellent dance school, my daughter has made great progress. Teachers supported her to find the style of dance that she enjoys. Value for money.”

“I've just returned from watching the show at RNCM, my 2 granddaughters were dancing today, I just wanted to say thank you for putting on a truly amazing show, I felt privileged to be able to watch such an amazing spectacle of dancing and music, the story resonated with every parent/grandparents, it was a truly beautiful performance from all ,thankyou xxx”

“Alice has been attending dance studio 1 since 2 1/2 years old and is now 15 She went in as a shy toddler and her confidence has grown immensely. She's done numerous exams in ballet,tap and theatre craft. Every 2 years she's taken part in a stage performance open to the public to watch. Since starting high school she’s become a studio assistant. Helping out with all the younger ones. Because of this Alice had just received a recognition at St Monica's for her dancing and kindness in helping others.Her dancing helped her through the pandemic as it continued throughout on zoom. I cant believe how much Alice has progressed since the beginning. It's not just dancing anymore it's literally her second family. Alice is in her GCSE year at school and dancing is her release for when revising gets tough. Exercise is so important to enable a healthy mind which helps with revision. She's made so many life long friends along the way and so have I. Thank you all at the studio for being so lovely, caring and most of all being the best Lynn x”

“I went to my first Afro Beats class on Thursday. Everyone was so welcoming, a really nice vibe. Rachel the dance teacher was amazing, she goes at your own pace and gives you confidence to have a go and have fun. I certainly had that, can't wait to go next week.”
