What Dancers Say About Equal Dance

4.9/5 from 8 Google reviews.

So pleased to have found this cool space for my dance practice, at affordable rates. (I'm quite a beginner and don't have much space at home). It's light, clean and friendly, and just a couple of minutes from Paddington Station.
I CAN HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
Have tried ballroom lessons with two of the Equal Dance teachers so far and will be taking more. They are really good – inspirational!— Shaw “Dr Orchid” Kate

Took a couple private lessons here with different instructors. Everyone was super nice and the Equal Dance team makes everyone feel very welcome! I am not an advanced dancer, so I feel like I learned a lot. The instructors were all very experienced and know very well how to look after absolute beginners and make beautiful wedding choreographies. The space is also really cool! 💯— Alice Kinevsky

Love this dance studio just round the corner from Paddington station :)! It is well equipped with mirrors on both sides of the studio, air conditioning, and a good sound system and offers really fun dance classes. I’ve taken group classes and private lessons here and everyone was super nice and made me feel very welcome. I can highly recommend it :)!— Alex

Highly recommended studio. I’ve taken group classes and private lessons here and it is the perfect spot – only a minute from Paddington station, and fully equipped with mirrors on both sides, excellent sound system, air conditioning, and LED lighting in a range of colours. Ideal for dance practise, lessons, or filming/photography.— Emma Ward
