Welcome to Dancers of Chippenham

Spring/Summer 2008

NEW CHILDREN’S CLASSES

 Children’s classes at Dancers of Chippenham form an increasingly important part of the school’s life and future.  Once started at an early age, dancing increases the child’s confidence and gives them poise and grace.  Children have the opportunity to progress through the Medal Test system and then perhaps move into the more demanding Competition Field.  For children who may have ambitions to teach dancing as a career, we can also offer training for a Professional qualification.  This training can start at the age of 16 years.

 

Junior Jazz                                                                                                         7yrs - 11yrs
