What Dancers Say About Siegeris Dance

4.9/5 from 42 Google reviews.

Our daughter has been with Siegeris Dance School for over 6 years now and its been such a good decision. It has helped her to learn ballet, build character and discover a non-academic pursuit which she loves. Mrs Jennifer and her team are out and out professionals, but lay tremedous emphasis on good pastoral care and great communication with pupils and parents. Probably amongst the best ballet academies in London. (the Royal academy of dance exams and shows my daughter has done through Siegeris have been massive highlights (and surprise) for us as parents). Thank you Mrs Jennifer 🙂 for being — Dr. Shrawankumar Roongta

I have been attending the Monday evening Adult Jazz class for a while now. If you are looking for a relaxed, fun and thoroughly enjoyable dance class, then this is the one for you! Charlotte caters for all abilities, ensuring every member of the group is learning steps at their own pace as she teaches the choreography for each new dance. We have learnt dances to songs from a range of artists from the last fifty years or so. It is a great way to start the week; a welcoming group, a fun dance-y workout, great music and a very creative, warm and encouraging teacher! All in all, highly recommended— Jane

My DD has been with the Siegeris School of Dance for seven years, initially following three genres of dance – ballet, modern and tap, and since September last year just modern & tap (due to DD becoming a year 7 boarder and having to do ballet at school). Miss Charlotte, who teaches the modern and tap, is the most wonderful of dance teachers, always getting the very best out of my DD in class (as well as a Distinction every time in her ISTD grade exams). As a competitive athlete my DD misses several lessons each term but Miss Charlotte always finds workarounds ensuring she does not fall behind.— Jason Snowdon

My daughter LOVES her teacher and ballet classes at Siegeris Dance. During the summer holidays she joined a week of their summer school and it was just the best experience. She'd come home every day so excited for the "secret" performance they were going to put on for everyone at the end of the week. It was a joy to have her that happy and enchanted about something. The show on the last day was magical. I was astonished how much my 5-year old learned, how wonderful they all performed and how much everyone enjoyed it. We already can't wait for the next time! Elegant, patient and kind teachers.— Jennifer Laing

Frequently Asked Questions

How hard is it to learn salsa?

Salsa is easy to start and takes time to polish, with the basic step coming quickly but timing developing later. Regular practice is more important than any prior experience.

Can a non-dancer learn salsa?

Yes, beginner salsa classes are made for people with no dance background. The steps are introduced gradually so anyone can follow.

Is it possible to learn ballet as an adult?

It certainly is, and adults take up ballet for posture, strength and pleasure. Adult classes are paced for those meeting the technique later in life.

What age is too late to start ballet?

There is no age that rules out recreational ballet, as it rewards steady effort over an early start. Adults of any age can make real progress.

What are 5 basic steps in line dancing?

Frequently taught steps include the grapevine, step-touch, kick-ball-change, pivot turn and shuffle. These underpin most beginner routines.

What is the easiest line dance to learn for beginners?

Short, repeating four-wall dances are the gentlest introduction. Ask which beginner routines are on the timetable before joining.
