Question
Hi There!!

I am a singer/songwriter who is interested in joining a Hip-hop style dance class.  I am looking to improve my performance skills, by learning from a trained choreographer.

Please could you send me some info about courses that might be available.  I am a fairly good dancer, but have never done choreography dance, so perhaps an intermediate class would be suitable?  I am in receipt of benefits, so hopefully there are concessionary fees.....

Regards  

Answer
Hello
If you just want to attend classes to feel more confident and to hone your skill then check out Husky studios in Elephant and Castle or Pineapple Studios in Covent Garden. They are perfect as you can find the class that is right for you with both style and pace. They have online timetables and descriptions and if not just spend a day there checking out what class you like the look of. They range between £5-10 total price depending if you have to pay an entrance fee. If you attend Pineapple and buy a season entrance ticket then they do give concessionary prices with proof. Good luck : )
