CHILDREN'S CLASSES FOR 10-14YRS
Children’s Classes for 10-14yrs at DM Studios
We have an ever expanding range of children’s classes for 10-14yrs for your child to enjoy here at DM Studios (after this age we will let them come to an adult class). We are really keen to give all the children the best opportunities in dance. We aspire to help your child, keep fit, make new friends and have loads of fun doing the hobby they love…dance!
There is lots of opportunity for your child to take part in exams and performances if they wish to. Classes are kept relatively small so that we can offer the best quality teaching and all classes are taught by fully trained teachers who we have found to be the best in their industry.
Take a look at our class timetable for information about days and times below but please note that not all classes will appear in the timetable due to the way you enrol your child, all of our children’s classes are paid for monthly. You will be asked to add your bank card details to our Dancers Portal and we will charge your card at the beginning of each month for the number of classes in that month. We have a one off, non refundable £25 registration fee which will be charged when you first enrol. This registration fee includes a Free t-shirt. Please feel free to contact us on 02380 635801 or email hello@dm-studios.co.uk if you would like to know more or sign up for your child’s first class?
Street Dance
Suitable for children Over 7 years old, this class focuses on popular street and hip hop styles in a fun and informative class. No previous dance experience is needed and boys are also welcome in the class.
Festival Team
We have a strong team of dancers who go out to competitions in the local area and compete in Festivals and Competitions. They do a group dance routine but alongside that they also compete in solos, duets and trios on stage in front of an audience. These events really help our dancers with their confidence and performance ability. It is a prerequisite of this class that dancers do one or more other classes with us, so please be mindful of this before booking a trial.
Ballet
Classes are a fun and friendly introduction to ballet. Our fantastic teacher Miss Grace will help your little one become the ballerina they’ve always dreamed of. We offer exams for students to take with the ISTD.
Contemporary Dance
Our contemporary dance classes are very popular. We have a couple of classes for this age group, Inters and Seniors (plus a junior group for our younger dancers). Contemporary is the dance style that they will learn if they wish to take a GCSE in dance or in further education.

We have created this program so that your child will learn through a proven system how to increase their confidence and express their creativity while being supported in a safe environment by our experienced teachers in singing, dancing and acting.
Acro Dance
Acro Dance Classes offer a fun and friendly introduction to acrobatic dance. Acrobatic Arts is a foundational program for Acro Dance. Made popular by TV shows like ‘Dance Moms’ and ‘The Next Step’ kids really want to learn how to execute the tricks and flips shown in these programs and on Youtube. This class will give the foundations for these moves to be executed in a safe and dedicated class. Children will be able to work through the grades and levels set out by Acrobatic Arts. Acro Dance is an additional skill which is taught alongside other dance classes.
Modern
Classes are a fun and friendly introduction to modern. Modern Theatre dance is a rhythmic dance style which originated in America before travelling to the rest of the world. It is often seen on the stages of musical productions and is known for its theatrical qualities. The style uses travelling steps, high kicks, leaps and turns which all need strength and flexibility. This is a highly energetic dance style.

Before booking a trial please contact us so that we can make sure your dancer is suitable and has the relevant experience necessary.
Inter/Senior Lyrical Class
Combine the grace of ballet with the excitement of contemporary modern dance. In our lyrical classes students learn how to express emotions through dance and how to interpret lyrics through movement.
