Dedicated to Dance

 

"There's a wonderful feeling one gets from the art of movement. Learning to dance is hard work, but great fun. Performing is a thrill" - Lisa Mason

 

At Lisa Mason School of Dance, we provide a welcoming place for dancers of all ages and abilities to learn, develop and enjoy dance. From taking those first steps to examinations and performances, our dancers are encouraged to build their skills, confidence and love of dance.

Experience the Thrill of Performing

At Lisa Mason School of Dance, performing is an important part of the experience. Our dancers have opportunities to take what they learn in the studio onto the stage through LMSD shows, pantomimes, local events and even  West End performances.

Whether performing at Haverhill Arts Centre, at a community event or on a West End stage, there is nothing quite like the excitement of performing for an audience, enjoying the applause and celebrating afterwards with your fellow dancers.

Learning, Progressing and Achieving

At LMSD, dancers are encouraged to develop their technique, knowledge and confidence as they progress. Through the British Association of Teachers of Dance (BATD) syllabus, dancers also have the opportunity to work towards recognised examinations.

 

Examinations provide something to work towards and a real sense of achievement — developing skills, building confidence and celebrating progress with certificates and medals along the way.
