Voted Number 1 for St Helens Dances Classes from 2019-2023
We are known for having the best Break Dancing and Hip Hop Classes in St Helens.

Other classes just deliver dance, where we provide Graffiti Arts, DJing, Parkour and Circus Classes. Don't let your child settle for just a street dance class, get them fully involved in all of Hip Hop!
