Schools and Colleges

At DanceWest, we bring expert facilitators directly to schools and colleges, offering bespoke dance workshops that spark creativity, ignite imagination, and encourage self-expression.

Our sessions cater to all ages—from Key Stage 1 to Key Stage 5—and can be fully customised to introduce dance as a fun new experience, teach specific styles, or support coursework for GCSE, BTEC, or A-level Dance. Students will explore their creativity while developing technical and performance skills in an engaging and supportive environment.

Who is it for?

Our programme is designed for all age groups, with workshops specially adapted for each Key Stage.

  • Younger students focus on creativity, confidence, physical fitness, and teamwork.

  • Older students (GCSE, BTEC, and A-level) delve deeper into technique, choreography, and performance skills.

Whether you want a single class, multiple groups, or the entire school to benefit, we can adapt to your needs and learning objectives.

What we offer:

We understand the challenges of scheduling, so we’ve created flexible options:

  • Half-day workshops (up to 3 hours)

  • Full-day workshops (3 - 6 hours)

  • Bespoke programmes (termly/half termly)

Our sessions align with the PE, PSHE, and Dance curriculum and can be organised as after-school or lunchtime clubs.

If you prefer an off-site experience, your group is welcome to join us at the DanceWest studio for a dynamic and immersive workshop.

We also offer tailored teacher CPD sessions, equipping your teachers with the tools and techniques to confidently deliver engaging dance activities.

Why choose DanceWest?

With DanceWest, students not only improve their physical and technical abilities but also build confidence, creativity, and interpersonal skills in a supportive and inspiring environment.

Let us help your students unlock their full potential—through the transformative power of dance!
