Dance Days provide fun and educational dance workshops to schools, building confidence through dance from EYFS upwards. Our dance styles link with many school topics.
“We couldn't have wished for a better experience from Dance Days. Throughout, both Darren and Matt were extremely professional and were available to converse with. Due to the current situation, amendments needed to be made such as altering the timetable, adding additional classes and catering for those children isolating. This was not, at any point, too much to ask from Dance Days. A video link was shared with a virtual dance session for the children who were away from school, which complemented what was taking place in school. Several staff members shared how well the sessions had gone and how much the children had engaged. At our school, we have a child in a wheelchair and an ASC provision and the dance teacher, Alice, was able to plan ahead and cater to the needs of these children perfectly. We could not recommend Dance Days enough and we will most definitely be relying on their services again.”

“We absolutely loved our workshop with Dance Days. Communication was fantastic from start to end, despite covid and lockdown restrictions. The workshop was fun and challenging and Alice created a fantastic working environment where all students felt confident to participate to their full potential. We will definitley be using Dance Days again for future Workshops.”

“A wonderful Bollywood workshop delivered by Dance Days for Year 3. The content was set in the context of Indian culture and tradition and the children were captivated by the dance sequence they learnt led by Darren. By the end of 45 minutes they produced a dance piece worthy of a film set.”

Thank you for having us in, and your children were great to teach, glad they all enjoyed their Bollywood dance workshop.
“We at Thomas's Fulham could not recommend Darren and Dance Days more highly. Having booked at rather short notice, the communication was excellent from the outset. Darren arrived with plenty of time to spare and was able to adapt his teaching to suit the needs of our 3 reception classes. He also performed a fantastic flamenco demonstration during assembly which captured the children's imaginations (and the staff too!) Given that our children have only been at school for 5 weeks, he was able to get the best out of them and they came away from their workshops with some amazing flamenco moves. We have already recommended him to our partner schools and will be using Dance Days again without a doubt! Muchas Gracias, Darren!”

“I hired Dance Days for an African Dancing Workshop for 34 children in Year 5 (KS2). The instructor, Alice, was fantastic. Really engaged with our kids and got them moving and put them through their paces, encouraging and praising them throughout. By the end of the morning, the children had learned a whole new routine, exercised thoroughly and most importantly had fun! We are getting Alice back to teach our Year 6 class next month!”

“An excellent Dance workshop for the children. The whole school loved the dancing but most importantly they loved Darren. It was brilliant to see so many children getting involved and really showing their personality through dance. They loved the African theme to start off the celebrations for Black History Month. We look forward to having you back again, Thank you Dance Days & thank you Darren for being amazing.”

“An amazing day for 150 children from Year 6 at Cippenham School. Darren was brilliant at teaching a variety of dancing styles from different parts of the world. An inspirational dancer and and a very patient teacher. The children thoroughly enjoyed their Bollywood dancing, 40s and 70s (style), Brazilian and Street Dance - it was engaging and energetic. All Year Sixes, found out that dancing can be entertaining, fun, engaging and educational. Thank you for an amazing experience!!!”

“Dance Days have been visiting our school for a number of years now. The children are always excited to learn from Darren and eager to get involved and participate with their classmates. Darren is professional, accommodating, positive and works well with children of all ages. We enjoy the workshops so much that we've added in 3 extra dance days this academic year! We can't recommend Dance Days enough!

Thank you for leaving such a great review, and for your continued support over the last couple of months and in the future! You children are always a pleasure to teach, and we are made to feel very welcome! Thanks again.
“I cannot express how wonderful the workshop was. Rosie was absolutely incredible. She was professional, punctual, and went above and beyond to make sure that all kids in all classes could join in and enjoy. She was brilliant with the kids and they loved learning to Irish Dance. She accepted our crazy idea to do the dance outside without hesitation and assisted every step of the way! Would highly recommend the workshops and hope to have Dance Days back again soon.”

Thank you for leaving Rosie such a lovely review. We are delighted to read that you all enjoy the workshops and thank you for having us in. Hopefully, see you all again soon and stay safe.
“The instructor was fantastic! She was engaging and great with the children. Throughout the day she taught 4 different classes across year 1 and 2 and all of the children greatly enjoyed her sessions.
She had good behaviour management with the children and ensured they learnt each move at a good pace. Even the teachers enjoyed learning the dance!
At the end of the session the children were given props to perform with and they all had the opportunity to show their classmates. Since the workshop the children have been practising the dance and still talk about how much fun they had.”

“The dance workshops were very engaging, energetic and easy to access for all pupils. The actions and moves were easy to follow for most pupils. They enjoyed it so much, they wanted to spend a whole hour dancing! The dance teacher was very friendly and the dances linked well with our topics.”

“The Dance sessions were pitched at exactly the right level and the Darren had a fabulous rapport with the children. They learned about not only Chinese Dance, but a little about the language and the culture. The children were engaged thoroughly from start to finish. The whole process was so easy from start to finish and communication was first rate.”

Thank you for leaving us a review, and it was a pleasure working with you all. Thank you for having us in at your school.
“We had Darren in on 14th February and he taught 3 classes dances from different countries. The children really enjoyed themselves during his lessons and were keen to perform their dances to their parents in the afternoon. Darren was very patient with all of them and encouraged everyone to have a go. In my class there was a boy who originally said that he didn't want to perform his dance to the parents but in the end he changed his mind and was really enthusiastic. I would definitely recommend Dance days to other schools and we will use them again ourselves.”

Great feedback and glad everyone enjoyed the workshops. Looking forward to working with you again soon.
“Really quick and efficient booking process, Darren was really helpful, and Ryan was a fabulous instructor! He broke down the dance into chunks the girls could pick up easily, and slowly picked up the tempo to match the music. The end result was really impressive in such a short space of time! The girls had a really wonderful time and so did some of the staff!”

Thank you for taking the time to leave Ryan a review, it was great working with you all and hopefully, we will see you again soon.
