Education

Helping people achieve their potential

Lightfoot School of Dancing gives its dancers the chance to do dance exams with IDTA twice a year and most students do around 12 exams a year. Every student has passed with flying colours and so far since 2002 we have passed over 20,000 dance exams.
We know education isn’t just about exam results though, it is also about learning to work as a group, becoming confident enough to be your true self and learning kindess goes a long way. As well as focusing on footwork, routines and getting incredible results through our exams we also focus on building confidence and becoming part of the Lightfoot School of Dancing Family – which means supporting others.
