Dance Attic Rehearsal Studios is a well-known studio-hire and rehearsal space in London, housed in a characterful old building. It provides large, spotless halls used by dancers, companies and class providers, alongside a café, showers and changing facilities. It is more a hub for dancing than a single dance school.
Visitors describe spacious studios with excellent floors, a vintage atmosphere and friendly staff, plus handy extras like an on-site café and even seating galleries in some halls. Reviewers note a lively creative buzz, mentioning drop-in classes such as Bollywood and live-music events, though a small entrance fee and the building's older facilities come up too.
Because many independent teachers hire the halls, the range of drop-in sessions here contributes to the wider pool of dance classes in London and dance lessons in London. On any given week you might find styles spanning salsa classes in London, line dancing in London, ballet classes in London and other adult dance classes in London, depending on who is running sessions. As the studios are primarily a rehearsal and hire venue rather than a school with its own syllabus, checking the current schedule is the best way to see what is on.
First-timers should expect a spacious, no-frills studio environment with useful facilities on hand. Bring comfortable dancewear and suitable shoes for your chosen class, and be aware there may be a small entry charge.
The building is located in London, within reach of the surrounding west London neighbourhoods.

5 stars for Bollywood class with Aanchal Gupta with MoveGB. Great bollywood music and easy to follow dance moves. 3 stars for venue. Got to pay £2 for entrance fee. Very vintage environment, big studios but toilets are a little cramped and run down.— Michelle Chin
It is easy to find, has it's own cafeteria, shower rooms and large and spacious dance halls with spotless floors.
There are even seating galleries in select halls!— senthil kumaran
I love this place very qualified teachers and very good value for money. I normally go to the evening class on Mondays with Nicola. Highly recommended!— Lucía Camarillo
Salsa's basic step is quick to learn, with turns and timing improving through practice. If a salsa class is running here, it makes a good place to start.
Yes, beginners take up salsa easily in classes built for no experience. Check the venue's schedule to see when a suitable session is on.
Adults can certainly learn ballet through beginner classes. Various teachers hire studios here, so an adult ballet session may well feature in the timetable.
There is no age too late for recreational ballet, as classes adapt to older beginners. The focus is on enjoyment rather than professional standards.
Line dancing uses moves such as the grapevine, step-touch, kick-ball-change, pivot turn and coaster step. A line-dance session in the halls here would teach these.
A short, repeating four-wall dance is usually the simplest to begin with. An instructor running a class can suggest a good one.
