This place is great. I felt so welcomed when I dropped-in for a Flamenco class. The teacher was…read moregreat and I stayed for two classes. If you have been to other studios, you know what to expect regarding coming into the class at the right time (as people are leaving the previous class), tucking your bag away, and stretching in a space of your own. This studio is really cool. It was an old bath house! It has loads of space. You feel like you belong, and it just runs like a great dance studio.

I went along to a breakdance (yes, you heard right, breakdance) class at my local dance studio and…read moreboy was I in for a workout.... I'm a pretty fit kind of gal - go to the gym regularly, eat my veggies, all that kind of stuff, but nothing prepared me for this. I arrived, somewhat sheepishly, at the Fame-esque studios and became gradually more terrified as I walked past room after room of people, perfectly in time, pulling some moves I could only dream of. I arrived at my studio and found that I was not the only person whose age began with a 3 - thank the Lord. Everyone was very friendly and soon swapping stories of their dancing experience. Luckily many were practically nil or fell into the 'I haven't done anything since school' category. To be honest, once you get in there, you're concentrating so hard on remembering the routines and trying not to break your legs/arms that you really don't care what everyone else is up to! Lana was our instructor - a half-woman, half b-boy phenomenon who really looked the part. Bandana, cap on sideways, baggy pants - she had the whole look down pat. And she was lovely. By the end of it I was exhausted, my knees hurt and I certainly wouldn't be pulling any of those moves on a dancefloor near you, but I was on my way. I'm looking forward to the next class already.

Firstly, I have to admit we cancelled the lessons. However, here is a summary of our poor…read moreexperience with Karen Hard Dance Studios. We email them specifically asking for a quote for home lessons as advertised on their website. It takes them 8 days to respond with a quote of £135 per lesson (£360 for 3 lessons). We accepted this. They asked for our address so they could work supplemental call out pricing. Some further 11 days pass while we wait for a response and invoice. We contact them again to get things confirmed. Two days after this we receive an invoice for £495 for a 45 minute lesson. I contact them to get the error corrected but apparently £360 is their standard call out charge. We wasted about 20 days trying to deal with them. In summary avoid unless you're willing to accept extremely sluggish replies and pay £11 per minute for home lessons.

This is a lovely place and the one on one tuition I received was great…read more But there is very little attention to customer service which is a shame as it could easily be improved: Some examples: - delay if at all to emails or phone calls, even when you want to sign up!! - staff that answer the phone can't answer even basic questions - no proactive help when you join and pay for a yearly membership. They just take the money and disappear. Eg No welcome email to get you started - website advertises that membership gives you access to a membership area (not actually live and no password maintenance so you can't access it anyway). Call or email for access and no response. - the door to the studio is locked with a bell so you often sit and wait - when you get in the staff often don't say hello so on your first visit you feel less then welcome and lost - membership benefits promised aren't there, no one for example creates any dance schedule for you, a newsletter appears but with no links to 'goodies' as promised and is not monthly, - the dance instructors have to sell the membership but don't really care about it and do it DURING your paid-for-by-the-hour dance class. I am surprised at the low level of customer service because they must lose or miss out on new members every day

The studios are bright, modern and airy and it is geared completely towards all levels - you don't tend to get too mixed a group in terms of ability so no chance of feeling like the one who can't get it! The range of classes are great - yoga, pilates, jazz, contemporary, ballet....something that everyone can benefit from and most importantly, enjoy. They tend to stick the standard classes as opposed to the more quirky and trendy classes but do sometimes introduce styles such as Cheerleading and Bollywood. It is also fairly cheap to go - around £8 on average for a class plus a couple of pound entry on arrival.
