We offer classes for everyone aged 3 to 104 (well, nearly!). Whether your child is just starting out or you're an adult looking to try something new, there's a place for you at BPDC.
To get the most out of your experience at BPDCompany, we recommend wearing comfortable clothing you can move freely in - a t-shirt with leggings or tracksuit bottoms works well for all classes.
For Ballet & Lyrical: Please wear bare feet or grippy socks.
For Commercial Pop and Musical Theatre: A clean pair of trainers is recommended to keep you safe and protect our studio floors.
The most important thing is that you feel comfortable, confident, and ready to dance!
