The 30 Best Jazz dance instruction in Manchester

“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.”

“My two girls have been with Damien Hey Dance Academy for six months, and we couldn’t be happier. Both Damien and Sam always go above and beyond to make sure all of their students achieve what they are capable of, but more importantly provide a nurturing environment that their kids feel happy in and are made to feel part of the DHDA family as soon as they walk through the door for the first time! They are fully invested from day one! Both girls already having danced for a number of years at a different school, we made the move to DHDA and the incredible progress they have both made absolutely makes the 490 mile round trip for lessons worth it! They come home enthusiastic and excited for the next one. I cannot thank Damien and Sam enough for all they do! If I could give more than five stars on here I would!”

“My daughter joined Starlight over a year ago. She really loves the lyrical dance session and what I appreciate is the lack of exams and snobbery at the school. It makes her soul sing to be a part of such an inclusive, dynamic, nurturing and encouraging dance school. Thank you for all the opportunities you’ve provided for her too, to be on stage at The Waterside and Sadlers’ Wells even though she’s only been dancing a year. I did try to bring her to dance classes several times but it’s not until she’s towards the end of primary that she’s been brave enough to throw herself into it and it’s wonderful to see!”

“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!!”

“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”

“My daughter has been dancing with vibe since she was 4. Great opportunities to dance in shows and competitions. She absolutely loves her vibe family.”

“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.”

“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”

“The most nurturing dance school with exceptional training, exceptionally caring teachers and a standard of dance education that is second to non. So very thankful for all CPA do for my daughter and seeing how much she has flourished under their care, training and guidance during the past 3 years has been a joy to see. We travel quite a distance to attend CPA, but is worth every mile and cannot recommend enough. My daughter is now going onto attend the Classical Pathway Btec course at CPA and we are over the moon that this is an option for dancers leaving school wishing to consider a career within this industry. Central performing arts truly is a magical place where a child’s love of dance is inspired by teachers who really do have their best interests at heart, in addition to being industry professionals who have themselves worked or are still working/performing. Truly inspirational dance school and dance community.”

“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”

“Such a warming environment of people, the best instructor! All so welcoming :)”

“Best dance school in the area. I love the classes here”

“My daughter has been at the school for 12 months now, it has been fantastic and she has loved every minute. Over the weekend we went to the schools dance performance and WOW I hadn’t realised how many students went and we were so impressed with how professional the performance was at Stockport Plaza. Highly recommended for anyone interested in a professional dance school.”

“Professional and friendly dance school which provides classes from the age of 2 through to adults in lots of different styles. Lovely and welcoming teachers with fun classes.”

“I hired Derek to come along to a ladies social evening and we all had such a fantastic time! Derek is such a likeable and enthusiastic person, explaining and demonstrating everything to us. When adding music and disco lights what was there not to like! Fab evening and would certainly recommend him!”

“My daughter loves coming to this class! The teacher is so fun and friendly.”

“We have had five lessons so far with Ray and they have been excellent. We love dancing together but have always found doing any kind of formal dancing hard. Ray is changing that.”

“My daughter has been attending the elevate classes for a year of street dance/commercial and after their amazingly organized and carried out showcase show performance she was inspired to join the lyrical classes as well. The proprietor and teacher Miss Amelia is skillful inspiring and able as my daughter was so impressed with the teachers abilities to showcase the technique of the dances with commitment! My daughter is attending the lessons for almost two years at age 10 now. I recommend the school so does my daughter.”
