What Dancers Say About Stagestruck Dance Academy

5/5 from 8 Google reviews.

My daughters have danced at Stagestruck Dance Academy for 5 years. Initially I enrolled my eldest daughter because she was so shy and lacked confidence being around others. This was undoubtedly the best decision I made. Over the last 5 years she has grown in confidence, made new friends and stepped outside of her comfort zone and she loves it. My younger daughter just loved to dance and has danced at SDA since being 2 1/2 and she loves it. The studio facilities are fabulous with big bright dance studios and a singing studio and the teachers are wonderful. Whatever your reasons for looking — Kathryn Lovell-Spencer

Great dance school with a very friendly and supportive atmosphere and teachers. Couldn't ask for better for my girls— Ruth Lunn

My daughter loves going here— Pete Lyon

Amazing place best teachers— Aga Schimera

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you start ballroom dancing?

Start with a beginner group class covering the hold, posture and a few basic steps. You need neither experience nor a partner to begin.

What ballroom dance to learn first?

The waltz is a frequent first choice for its slow, even rhythm. The social foxtrot and cha-cha are also gentle ways in that build lasting fundamentals.

How hard is it to learn salsa?

The basic step is quick to learn, often in a single lesson. Timing and partner work grow more natural the more you practise.

Can a non-dancer learn salsa?

Yes. Beginner classes are made for people with no experience, and counting the rhythm while repeating the basics gets you moving.

What are 5 basic steps in line dancing?

Typical steps include the grapevine, kick-ball-change, shuffle, pivot turn and simple walks forward and back. Beginner dances string several of these together.

What is the easiest line dance to learn for beginners?

Short routines with repeating sequences are the easiest to pick up. Teachers usually open with one built from a few simple moves.
