OUR CLASSES
about us
Aspirations School of Dance based in Sussex, primarily offers classical ballet training for students from 5 to 19 years old. This is supplemented by a cohesive program of Acrobatic Arts, International Dance Technique, Stretch, Tap, LAMDA, and Musical Theatre together with Anatomy and Physiology to give the dancers of today the tools they will need to succeed for tomorrow. The school also hosts a daily pre-school dance curriculum for the under-fives that affords a perfect transition into graded classes.
Founded in 2011, Aspirations has its own bespoke studios in Henfield. We are privileged to have alliances with several vocational colleges and a wealth of guest teachers to supplement our curriculum and give performance opportunities to our students.

Testimonials
” My daughter has been taught by Miss Amanda for over 8 years. Miss A is extremely conscious of how different children are and gets to know each individual child within her dance school. The level of support and guidance our daughter is shown by Miss A is something that would be hard to find elsewhere” Mrs F, Henfield
“I would thoroughly recommend ASD to anyone looking for a professional, fun and super-friendly dance school ” Mrs H , Henfield
“Miss Amanda is a modern Mary Poppins. Not only is she remarkably talented , she is kind, caring, loving, firm, patient and both my children adore her. Her patience astounds me. She is child centred with everything she does. Her knowledge of safeguarding mixed with flawless techniques leaves me with such confidence with her having my children in her care, let alone seeing how happy they are and the progress they have made” Mrs W , Henfield
