ABOUT US
JANE'S SCHOOL OF DANCING:
Janes School of Dancing has been in business since 1985, teaching Streetdance/Hip Hop & Disco/Freestyle. We hold classes in Luton, Hitchin & St. Albans, also providing private tuition and workshops often with renowned dancers such as:
KELLY CHANDLER
CHARLENE SUTHERLAND
KATIE WILLIAMS
All teachers are CRB checked, qualified, insured & are required to adhere to Jane's very high standards. Jane prides herself on giving some of the best training a dancer could ask for, hence her teachers are professional, respectful & most of all knowledgeable in their chosen forms of dance.
We have yearly dance medal tests (exams), for which we achieve great success as do our competitive dancers who compete on a regular basis, most weekends, competing mainly in the south but sometimes as far away as Germany representing England since 2006 in the IDO World Championships! Our dancers also perform in shows and demonstrations.
In 2007/08 & again this year Janes School of Dancing is taking part in a Streetdance Spectacular titled Streets Ahead at the London Palladium/Her Majesties Theatre.
