Year 7+ Dance Classes in Worthing

About our Year 7+ Classes

By Yr7, if they have reached Grade 4 Ballet, we begin working on some pre-pointe exercises in preparation for Pointe work around Grade 5 if each student is ready strength-wise.

In addition to Ballet, Tap and Modern classes, students around Yr8+ have the opportunity to try Contemporary dance.

Contemporary classes encourage creative exploration of natural movements and individual style, along with a strong technique. This is a really mindful class that will benefit students' confidence and wellbeing as much as their bodies.

They may also be invited to assist with early years classes if they wish to do so as part of their personal development.

The teachers are great and are able to balance having fun in class with actually learning dance technique.

I would highly recommend these classes to anyone.

I've been extremely impressed by how professional, proactive & well organised you have been - from day-to-day operations and communications, to the wonderful shows at the Pavilion Theatre. Grace Dance is a real asset for Worthing.
Becky
Parent
My daughter can be very shy but she's settled in so well. Its such a lovely and welcoming dance school. We are really pleased with her progress and the opportunities offered, such as the performance that is being planned.
Jodie
Parent
Thank you for providing a fun and nurturing environment for the children to learn in - they are clearly thriving!

Choosing your school for my girls was one of the best decisions I ever made.
Amy
Parent
Grace Dance is A-MAZ-ING. Miss Fiona and the teachers have created such a supportive, nurturing, happy environment - seeing them with the children is like watching magic at work. Their enthusiasm and interest is infectious! Hard work is rewarded but there is no pressure to 'perform' - everything comes back to simply feeling the joy of dance. The sense of 'belonging' and genuine care, coupled with a quiet discipline and huge dollops of fun mean that my son has grown in confidence and positivity.

Do You Have A Question?

Yes, we offer a taster class before you choose to enrol.

You pay for one taster class (or several if trying various styles) after which we will send you full enrolment details.
We lend uniform and shoes for one taster class.

If you decide to enrol then you will be sent details for the appropriate uniform, which can be purchased from our online supplier or via our secondhand group.
We require all weekday Preschool, Reception, Yr1 & Yr2 classes to have a parent remain on site. Except for Saturdays, when we escort them on any toilet runs and between their classes.

All children of only 3 yrs must have a parent remain onsite. There is a comfortable cafe area to enjoy, and you are simply asked to make a small purchase.
We do not allow parents into taster classes.

Some classes you are able to view a little through the window, but we do provide 'watching week' opportunities in most terms and will let you know when the next one is coming up.

Confused by dance classes?

Are you confused by dance classes? We had a good question from a parent this week: ‘Why is my child in a ‘pre-primary' class, when they are already at primary school?!’ We get it - dance class names can be confusing! 😜 Dance schools use 'Primary' to refer to a particular standard, rather than it […]

More than just dance steps: Nurturing intelligence

You've probably cottoned onto the fact that our team are just as passionate about the holistic aspects of our classes as they are about the dance steps… but I wanted to explain what we mean by nurturing intelligence in class. I could talk about ‘the science bit'  (here it is if you're interested, skip it […]
