Testimonials
Cara Waldron
Both our girls started dancing at Natalie Woods School and AB Dance Studios when they were just 3 year olds.
What started off as a gentle Saturday hobby has grown into an absolute love of dance and performance! Natalie, Anna and their team are not only wonderful teachers but are so encouraging and supportive of all the children.
The dance schools are truly like family where dancing is taught, fun is had and friendships flourish. And as for the school shows…out of this world!
Payal Wilson
My daughter has attended Natalie Woods School and AB Dance Studios since she was 3.5 years old and I cannot recommend them enough.
The schools and all the instructors create a safe environment for children to learn about dance and performance, building confidence and skills, to express themselves and build the best friendships.
Nyla, now 9, so looks forward to her classes and she has improved immensely in her technique within tap, ballet, jazz and stage performance. It has been so lovely to see how she has grown in confidence and secured some wonderful friendships that she will have for life.

My son loves his Street Dance lessons, teachers provide a safe environment for him to learn but challenge him to achieve his Full potential all whilst having great fun!
We all feel part of the Natalie Woods/AB dance family, Natalie & Anna are just wonderful – we would never dance anywhere else!
