High-energy combinations to the latest chart hits. Great exercise, though nobody notices.

Questions parents ask
My child has never danced. Is that OK?
Absolutely. Lots of our dancers started on their very first day with us. Kirstin will make sure they feel at home.
What should they wear?
[Confirm: e.g. comfy clothes they can move in and clean trainers]
Where is it?
The Pointe Gallery, Old Salvation Army Hall, Durngate Street, Dorchester DT1 1NA.
Do they have to do shows or competitions?
Never. Shows and Performance Crew are there for anyone who wants them, but plenty of dancers just come for the fun every Friday.
