Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need any dance experience?
No experience is needed at all. Many of our adult dancers start as complete beginners and our classes are friendly, relaxed and supportive.
Do I need a partner?
No partner is required. Most adults attend on their own and classes are structured so everyone feels comfortable.
What ages are your adult classes for?
Our adult classes are open to all ages. We welcome adults of all ages and backgrounds, it’s never too late to start dancing.
What should I wear?
Comfortable clothing you can move in is perfect. Shoes with a smooth sole are ideal, but trainers are absolutely fine to start with.
Which class should I start with?
If you’re new to dance, we recommend starting with our Adult Beginner classes. If you’re unsure, just contact us and we’ll help you choose the right option.
Are classes very formal or strict?
Not at all. Our adult classes are structured but relaxed, with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. We focus on enjoyment as much as learning.
Are there social opportunities as well as classes?
Yes. We regularly run social dance evenings, themed events and workshops. Many adults also stay for a drink in our café before or after class.
What if I miss a class?
If you can’t attend a session, just let us know. Our team will always try to help where possible.
How do I book?

WHAT PEOPLE SAY...
Trusted by families across Ipswich for generations.
SARAH
I joined Ipswich School of Dancing having never danced before and was very nervous, but from the first class I felt completely at ease. The teachers are friendly and encouraging, and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. It’s now the highlight of my week.
MARK
I started dancing as something new to try and didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I do. The classes are well structured but never intimidating, and everyone is made to feel welcome. It’s a great mix of learning, fun and socialising.
JAMES
I returned to dance after many years away and couldn’t have chosen a better place. The teachers are supportive and patient, and there’s no pressure at all. I’ve gained confidence, met lovely people and genuinely look forward to every class.
HELEN
I was worried about not having a partner or any experience, but neither mattered at all. The classes are friendly and inclusive, and the social side is a real bonus. It feels like a community, not just a dance school.
