Kids Dance Classes


Streching children's imagination
Embrace your inner performer with Dance, Drama and Singing
Dance training is invaluable to an individual whether or not they choose it as a career path. Dance is an exceptional form of creative self-expression, that stimulates both body, mind and imagination. It is a fun activity that lifts the spirit.

Children's dance classes are an essential part of StageCoach's curriculum and all students in our main schools take an hour's dance class every week.

Most kids dance classes concentrate solely on dance and this is fine in its own right. In fact many of our young students attend a kids dance class in addition to StageCoach. If your child has the desire to persue a career in dance then this is to be recommended. If, however they aspire to a career in musical theater the other disciplines of acting and singing are a fundamental part of your child's training. StageCoach offers all three major disciplines from age 4 upwards.

StageCoach starts to enroll youngsters from the age of four. At this age they join our 'Early Stages' class. The typical class comprises of 30 minutes of childrens' dance classes as well as 60 minutes of childrens' drama and singing classes. Developing your childs skills at this early age is hugely advantageous and is the reasons StageCoach 'Early Stages' classes enjoy worldwide popularity.

The benefits to your child from a Kids Dance Class are many:
  • It generates self-control, giving students an essential discipline for life
  • It gives an awareness of self-worth and accomplishment
  • It promotes good posture, balance, co-ordination and spatial awareness
  • It strengthens the heart muscles, aids good circulation and develops muscle tone
  • It introduces students to music, developing their musicality and a general appreciation of music and a wide repertoire of dance
  • It fosters good team work, helping to develop an emotional and physical understanding towards others.
  • It encourages students to feel at home in, and comfortable with their own bodies.
  • It is an excellent form of exercise and it is FUN!
  • Hardly surprising then, that kids dance classes are so popular and well attended worldwide.


Lately it has been noticed that more and more, boys are keen to develop thier dance skills. The popularity of Hip-hop, Street dance and Break dancing has inspired young boys to embrace dance and the film Billy Elliot has made boys learning ballet 'cool' again. With this growth in interest many kids dance classes are being set up especially with boys in mind.

At StageCoach our dance tuition does not typically include ballet or tap but aside from these a wide and varied range of dance styles are included in the year's work. As well as modern jazz and street dance, our students learn dance from other nationalities as well as styles from a bygone era. Time is also spent encouraging and developing our students' own creative expression.

Childrens' dance classes provide an exciting and entertaining extra-curricular activity and combined with acting classes and singing classes your child can grow and explore their own creativity.
