CLASSES AND DANCE STYLES
DANCE CLASSES
With a wide variety of classes throughout the week there’s a style to suit everyone. Where you’re an all out pro or a beginner you’ll fit right into the Starlight family and start developing right away. But it’s more than just the classes…
Throughout the year we have many events ranging from full school shows to smaller performances that support our local communities. We offer opportunities for all of our dancers to shine on London’s West End and for those who wish to push themselves to the next level, regional and national competitions for our performance teams.
Above all at Starlight we are one big family. We encourage each other, support each other and make life long friendships.

A typical class includes a warm up with strengthening, conditioning, and stretching before beginning mat work to improve on skills from backbends to walkovers, and cartwheels to aerials and backflips. Our acro classes are suitable for all levels, as we have stations with various staff members to help dancers improve no matter what experience and ability.
