About Us

About Us

At Ascend Dance we believe in providing quality and fun dance education by qualified and experienced dance teachers. 

Our teachers are PVG registered and trained in first aid alongside also holding appropriate qualifications in Dance Education. Teachers spend a significant amount of time each year pursuing CPD, which keeps them up to date with the latesr dance technique and teaching methods.

We want our classes to be a welcoming and nourishing environment where your little stars can thrive and express themselves.

We believe in fostering a kind and caring attitude towards dance education and are an inclusive dance school.

Dancers are given the opportunity to take RAD and BBO examinations yearly, which is optional and non exam students are entirely welcome to come and just enjoy dancing.

Students are also given the oppotunity to perform throughout the year, again this is optional.
