Dance classes that are sociable, focused & fun!

Our family of classes
Four styles, one Starz family. Every class is built around fun, kindness and steady progress, celebrating every dancer's progress over perfection.
6 months to teensA gentle, joyful start to dance. Pre-school classes follow the EYFS, with a 30-minute lesson plus social time with toys and refreshments. School-age classes build on the PE curriculum.
4 years to teensFun, modern, high-energy dance that builds rhythm, memory and confidence through imaginative routines with friends.
4 years to teensDance meets acrobatics. Dancers build strength, balance and flexibility safely, recording each new skill in their own Starz Acro Progress Book.
4 years to teensRhythm, timing and musicality, step by step. Dancers track their skills in a Tap Starz Progress Book as they make music with their feet.

What our families say
Rated 5 stars by Starz parents on Google and Pebble, and the lovely messages we get after every show.
I always come away from the shows with the biggest smile on my face. All the girls just shine happiness and confidence on stage, and it's so lovely to see them truly enjoying themselves. It doesn't go unnoticed, all the effort, hard work, energy and passion it takes to put on these shows, so a BIG, BIG THANK YOU! And a big shout out to Miss Kim for being 'a great teacher'.
A lovely baby ballet class! Very enjoyable, well organised, and a wonderful experience for little ones. Highly recommend!
It was wonderful to see the rapport the teacher had with each individual child. An extremely welcoming and enjoyable session. We will be back!
We assessed loads of classes before choosing Starz. Our 2-year-old absolutely loves it! Fun, engaging and simply amazing.
My daughter's confidence has grown so much since starting ballet. Miss Kerry is wonderful!
My 6-year-old has now performed in three Starz shows and loves her Dance Starz and Acro classes. The teachers are so kind and friendly. Highly recommend!
Every week our daughter's excitement when we say 'time for dancing' tells us everything. Starz Ballet is full of fun, love and encouragement!
