OPPORTUNITIES
A big part of what we do at Mad4Dance is performance. As well as performing at local events in Christchurch, Bournemouth and Poole, we also work towards bi-annual stage performances both locally and on tour, such as, the F1 Grand Prix, performances in the West End and on stage at Disneyland Paris. These are ideal opportunities to showcase our student's achievements.
SHOWS
Our bi-annual, fully produced theatre shows allow students to experience the thrill of performing in a professional setting and build a sense of empowerment. Our shows are more than just events; they are moments where our students come together as a family, showcasing their talents and hard work. These experiences not only enhance their dance skills but also build confidence and create cherished memories that last a lifetime.
EVENTS
At Mad4Dance, we love to offer as many varied opportunities as possible to broaden our students' experiences. To date, these have included trips to perform in prestigious locations such as London’s West End, the F1 Grand Prix at Silverstone, and Disneyland Paris. In addition to these exciting trips, we also organise our own events as a dance school. Some of our most memorable events include our Glitter Ball, where our students and parents get dressed up for a meal, awards evening, and party to celebrate our special family. We also host movie nights at our studios, providing fun socials and bonding opportunities for our students.
WORKSHOPS
Workshop trips are organised for the students in order to broaden their experience. These include day trips to work with top international artists such as Diversity and Twist & Pulse and our ADP students attending Move It in London, the largest dance exhibition in the UK. For many years we took part in an annual local event called A Chance To Dance which involved attending workshops run by top professional artists and performing on stage in a gala performance at the Pavilion in Bournemouth.

"Mad4dance is an incredible dance school, offering so much more than traditional lessons. Julie and the team made Bella feel so welcome from the start and the school has been a fantastic nurturing environment. Pre teens can be such a challenging time but with support from a lovely network we’ve seen her thrive. Julie’s dedication and passion for dance and for driving and pushing to build a dedicated dance space is inspirational. Thank you."
