Dance school in Manchester

“I cannot recommend BSA enough! Since joining BSA 16 years ago, I am still a part of the family now. It is a dance school where confidence is built and friends are made for life. With amazing teachers and opportunities, it is no wonder I couldn’t wait to go back and join adult tap. If you’re thinking about sending your child to dance, there really is nowhere better than Bates Stage Academy!”

“lovely studio with multi level classes. With friendly dancers and professional teachers”

“My daughter has been attending the juniors class for a year and absolutely adores it. She has grown in confidence indeed her class teacher mentioned it at parents evening. The tutors are fabulous . I can thoroughly recommend First Act”

“Best dance studio, with the bestest staff Daughter absolutely love goin TDS :)”

“My daughter loves being part of the Empowered family and has excelled in freestyle, slow and street dance. Amazing, dedicated teachers and all children are happy and friendly - a credit to the dance school and the staff.”

“Wonderful place full of positivity and sparkle. Grown my confidence over the years and a safe place to be who I am. Fab fitness classes too!”

“Fantastic dance school, Danielle and Joanne are brilliant with the children and provide a fun, friendly and affordable place for the children to learn dance. My daughter’s confidence has grown so much since starting and now attends many different classes that are available and is excited to attend each one.”

“Salsa de Cuba! Fantastico! The ONLY authentic, Havana university trained dance teachers in Manchester. I have done all of their dance courses except one in the last 5 years. Juan & Susan have also given me the amazing opportunity to participate in many dance performances of which I am eternally honoured to have done. I also went on one of their Cuba holidays which was one of the best experiences ever! Not many dancers can say that they’ve even danced with their dance teachers beautiful family in their kitchen, in the heart of Havana with a live band.....you’ll never experience that on any other Cuba package holiday! Nor will you ever receive such friendly, professional dance advice elsewhere! Well done Salsa de Cuba. Much love & future success”

“The most welcoming, friendly and fun studio in Manchester! The instructors are fantastic, supportive and work to your level in every class. The variety of classes on offer far outstrips any other studio in Manchester and they offer great value for money. Easily accessible, just 10 minutes from Piccadilly Gardens, if you are looking to start out or to drop by and practice insane tricks, Polefire is without a doubt the best place to go!”

“Lovely nursery, lots of volunteers helping out.”

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

“I'm a big fan of sports and leisure centres, and I've been to a few in my time. But I have to say that New Hall Village Sports and Leisure Centre is one of the best I've ever been to. It's got everything you could possibly want in a sports and leisure centre, and more. The facilities are top-notch. There is ample parking available. But what really makes it stand out is the staff. They're all really friendly and helpful, and they're always happy to answer any questions you have. They also make a real effort to create a welcoming and inclusive atmosphere, which is something I really appreciate. Overall, I would highly recommend”

“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.”

“Very very very fast WiFi, a good place to come and relax with the family. A good place to come and eat food and drink refreshments. Had no problems with this place 10/10”

“This is a great local leisure centre it has all you need. I use the gym and pool 4 nights a week, but there are so many other activities available.”

“It's a nice little place, if you want to take your little one or have any apointment depending on what, receptionist is very nice & friendly, super welcoming.”

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

“Brilliant facilities. Not only a gym, but also host birthday parties with local companies and lots of great sessions for kids. Staff are amazing. Mark is brilliant and always happy to help.”

“Lovely people. They're do free classes on Wednesday 10 am tell 11am please check on Facebook if you are still on”

“Fantastic to see a group of very talented Ball Hall referees appointed to the GB Masters 2024 tournament. Great work developing a new generation of officials who showcased their abilities excellently, and have very bright futures ahead.”

“So far I’m enjoying kids planet everything is smooth and I feel like Josiah is safe and learning. I especially love the app where I’m updated about Joshiah day”

“My son has been attending J star academy for 3 months now and honestly I have found the whole experience with him amazing. I have seen his confidence grow and watching the recent performance put together with the acamdemy brought a lot of happiness. Highly recommend this academy for parents looking for activities with their young ones.”

“I come to the studio regularly for the classes and it by far my favourite studio I have danced at. Has the most widest offering and centrally located so very easy to get to. I purchase my classes on the door and have never had a problem. Definitely recommend following their instagram to get updates on the classes schedule. If you have a chance, check out the Cuban Salsa by Smain as it is a really fun class and style.”

“Pleanty of choice of different type of shoes at a reasonable price. I purchased a pair of black PE trainers and a pair of trainers for the playground for my daughter and paid £32 in total. The shop offers shoes from toddler to adult size and casual to office wear. If you want to stick to a low budget I'd suggest this shop.”

“Lovely staff, nothing too much of a problem. The young lady that served myself and my foster son with SEND was excellent with him and I did not feel rushed. I also had to pop back as I thought I'd lost something and the lady that looked around for it even went onto her hands and knees to see if it had rolled under the shoe rack!”
