CHARACTER AND CULTURAL DANCE

Character and cultural dances are incorporated into classes to broaden students' artistic experience. Exploring styles from different countries enhances musicality, expression, and understanding of dance as storytelling.

Regular workshops provide opportunities to explore cultural variation in movement and style.

Ballet lessons run Monday to Saturday, offering flexible options for children and adults at all levels. Students receive personalised guidance from instructors, ensuring progress and enjoyment. The timetable allows everyone to find a class that fits their lifestyle, supporting exam preparation, performance readiness, and skill development. Class sizes are structured to allow individual attention and feedback. Students can combine ballet with other styles to develop a broader skill set and creative expression.

My son has been going to Jason Thomas Dance School for 4 years now and enjoys every second he is there ! It’s like being part of a family, the support the pupils show each other is second to none and the teachers are absolutely fantastic and so encouraging. The opportunity’s my son has had since being here are great and he keeps going from strength to strength. Through the teaching and support he has had from being here he has been accepted into Tring Park dance school at the ago of 10. I couldn’t be happier with the dance school the best decision I ever made was to send him to Jason’s Thomas Performing Arts School.
