CLASSES

We believe that everyone should be able to benefit from the vital and life-enhancing power of dance. Our classes programme is a fantastic way for you to reignite your love of dance, take up a new hobby and get your body moving.

 

“I enjoy the weekly exercise and the challenge of stretching myself, the chance to push my mind and body.” – previous class participant

Dance has such a variety of incredible benefits for both your physical and mental health. It’s not only a powerful artistic tool for self-expression, discovery and fulfilment, but also a tool to unite people and communities, contributing to the wellbeing of the population and providing many ways to enhance physical and mental health.

Our classes are for everyone of any age and ability; you don’t have to be a dancer to join in, you just need the enthusiasm to move with us. It’s not about getting it right or working towards grades, instead our classes focus more on exploring the joy of dance and movement in a social class where you’ll meet friends, boost your serotonin levels and explore new movement.

For autumn 2025, we are delighted to offer an updated programme. There are more classes, a wider mix of open and advanced levels, as well as more opportunities for kids and young people to get involved. Explore our programme below.

DANCEEAST BURSARY FUND

The DanceEast Bursary Fund is an access scheme to provide children and young people in Ipswich with free places in our classes and school holiday activity, so that all children and young people can experience the joyful benefits of dance.

The Fund provides children and young people from 0-18 years with a free place for one term (10 weeks) in one of our dance classes. The fund is intended for young people from low-income households who love to dance or would like to try dance for the first time and who would otherwise not be able to afford a term’s worth of dance activity.
