What we do?

Welcome to The Dance Club! An exciting and supportive space where children and adults are taught various dance styles influenced by popular music and commercial choreography, led by professional dancer Leanne Michael.

What is Commercial Dance?

Commercial dance is a style of dance that emerged from the entertainment industry, primarily created and performed for commercial purposes such as music videos, concerts, television shows, movies, advertisements, and live performances, all of which Leanne works in. It is a fusion of various dance styles, including hip-hop, jazz, contemporary, street dance, and even ballet and tap, depending on the music and the concept of the performance.

The beauty of commercial dance is it is closely tied to popular music, and as music styles and genres change over time, so does the dance that accompanies them. It keeps it relevant and the dancers engaged, ultimately dancing to music that you know, whether it was a favourite hit years ago or in the charts right now. This gives the scope to make each class and workshop incredibly age appropriate, honing in on the popular music and trends for that particular age group.

The Dance Club Aims and Ethos

As well as gaining the discipline that a dance class very importantly instils, we also encourage individuality and self confidence at The Dance Club. Through an encouraging and fun environment, dancers will be able to take this confidence into their day to day lives, whether it’s going to a new school, public speaking, attending a job interview or making new friends, self confidence can benefit everyone. But most of all we encourage fun, and who doesn’t like to have fun?!
