Open Days: Registration Now Open! 7th & 19th Nov 2023
Downland Dance Open Days have become a fun and popular way for children and adults to get a taste of the many benefits of dance. During our Open Days, prospective students are invited to attend a FREE dance class in one of our studios. There you will have the opportunity to meet our teachers, learn more about the different classes we offer, and ask any questions you may have. Your child is sure to love making new friends and learning new skills in our classes – why not come along and give one of our adult classes a go as well?
