“A great teacher doesn’t just teach steps — they inspire confidence, nurture ambition and help every student discover what they’re capable of.”

On World Teachers’ Day, we’d like to thank our wonderful Dance Factory teaching team — Fay, Abi, Beth, Claire, Charlotte, Lexie, Chloe, Bethan and all of our fantastic cover teachers, assistants & receptionists.

Thank you for your dedication, encouragement and the positive impact you have on our dancers every day.

Happy World Teachers’ Day 🫶🏻

Enrolment is now open for our beautiful Preschool Ballet class 🩰

Join us every Saturday morning at 10:30am at our studios in Desford for a magical first introduction to the world of dance.

Designed especially for our tiniest dancers, our class combines creativity, imagination and the foundations of classical ballet in a warm, playful and nurturing environment. Led by our Principal, Fay, alongside her assistants, each session is carefully crafted to inspire confidence & freedom of movement.

✨ Spaces are now available – we’d love to welcome your little dancer to the Dance Factory family.

Stunning Studio Saturday

So many grades are being signed off as our dancers work towards exam readiness for our autumn and winter IDTA and ISTD examinations. We’ve also had beautiful feedback from the Dream Big event where some of our Comp Team are performing today — we are so proud of you all.

It’s also been wonderful to welcome lots of new dancers into the studio following their trial classes, now stepping through the doors in their brand-new Dance Factory uniform after fully enrolling with us.

See some of you at the competition tomorrow, or back in the studio from Monday.

Great work, Team DF 🖤
