My girls absolutely loved the Easter Camp and can't wait for the next one. They were fully entertained with Acro, dance, art and crafts and much more. I'm so grateful for this camp. The video that was produced for us was so amazing to see what the girls were up to .

My daughter has been attending KDA for seven years now and we could not be happier with her time at KDA. Katrina is a fantastic dance teacher who really cares about her students. Katrina goes above and beyond to give excellent dance training to all her students. She is very much loved by my daughter who enjoys her time at KDA and taking part in the optional dance competitions, which has really helped with my daughter's confidence. Would definitely recommend this dance academy without hesitation.— Caroline Fisher

Cannot recommend KDA enough, my daughter has attended since a very young age and she absolutely loves it. Katrina has always been so welcoming and encouraging, she has definitely helped build not only my daughters dance skills but also her confidence. The rest of the girls that teach are also amazing too. The classes are a safe happy environment for the children and they all come out of class smiling every week!! Thank you KDA!!— Maria E

How much does a dance class usually cost?

Costs vary by class, age group and any block or camp bookings. It is best to contact the academy directly for current rates.

Which dance is best for beginners?

For children, a style with a clear rhythm and plenty of fun is a good place to start. Staff can suggest the right class for a young beginner.

What is the best dance to start as an adult?

Adults often begin with a sociable, rhythm-led style that builds confidence quickly. The best choice depends on your goals, which the school can help with.

Is dancing good for heart failure?
