KyAdult pupil, via Facebook recommendation “My daughter has been at MK dance for a few months now and she loves it. The teacher, Kathryn is absolutely fantastic - she makes the class fun but also teaches them the basics of ballet and tap so well. My daughter is 4 and in the youngest class and I can see her getting better week on week. Couldn't recommend it enough!”
ParentParent of a 4 year old, via Facebook post “Attending MK dance is a great way to build confidence and meet new people. New to dance as an adult can be daunting, but dancing through MK takes this away, they welcome dancers of all ages, experienced and non experienced. I have learnt the art of ballet and tap and love ever minute of it! The teachers are amazing, very welcoming and friendly and draw out the talent in every dancer in the class.”
