What we do

At Rochester School of Dance, we offer professionally designed, fun, and inspiring classes in ballet, modern, tap, and street dance for children aged 2 to 18 years. Lessons run during the week and at weekends across a variety of convenient locations in Rochester.

Our preschool classes are specially tailored to support little ones as they take their first magical steps into dance – full of imagination, movement, and fun.

From our youngest dancers to our confident teens, every child is welcomed into a friendly, supportive space where they can grow and shine. From age 6, students can work towards the prestigious ISTD graded exams, building strong technique and confidence.
All dancers are invited to take part in our exciting annual show at the Central Theatre in Chatham – a highlight of the year for everyone!
