the weston school of dance & performing arts
Woodlands Park Road
The School aims to cater for everyone. Children are accepted from the age of
three years, and we provide classes for all ages, including adults. Children can
train in ballet, modern theatre dance, tap and (when they are a little older)
jazz, musical theatre, commercial jazz and contemporary dance. Adults, too, can
attend ballet and tap. The majority of our students want to dance for sheer
pleasure, some will want to work towards examinations and others may want to
make dancing their career. Whatever their aims we give them every encouragement
to achieve them. Dancing should be fun! Our first priority is that students
enjoy themselves, safely and under the eye of experienced teachers. But dancing
also provides other benefits: exercise and an improvement in posture and
co-ordination; development of confidence and social skills; musical and artistic
appreciation; the cultivation of imagination, to mention a just a few. All of
our teachers have been through Enhanced DBS checks. Most of our teachers are
qualified with the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD) and those who
are working towards their teaching qualifications are regularly monitored. All
are enthusiastic and work hard to ensure that a high standard of teaching is
maintained at all levels. The Weston is a business partnership which aims to
provide a friendly and personal atmosphere for students and parents. However, as
a client of any well run establishment, you can expect to be afforded a
business-like and professional approach. A number of facilities are in place for
your convenience.
