AE Dance + Fitness - Dance Classes

I went along to the musical theatre dance class this week and had such a blast! I’m a complete novice and I don’t have any concept of rhythm, but the class was so welcoming and can be tailored to all abilities. Our instructor was a bundle of joy and all of the other participants gave me a warm welcome. I can see why people attend the classes consistently as they’ve formed such a friendly bubble! Can’t wait to go back!

Without a doubt the most friendly and welcoming dance classes I’ve ever been to! Doesn’t matter whether you’re a pro or a newbie, you’ll be welcomed and supported throughout! There are also so many dance styles to try that are all super reasonable prices. Been involved just over a year and not going anywhere anytime soon as I absolutely love it!

I love this space, it has been a great find in Bristol! The atmosphere is super friendly and everyone is very welcoming of new joiners. I started Barre fitness as a way to dance and keep active and I plan to continue to go because I love my classes! I am not the best at following the steps, but certainly have a lot of fun and get a good workout, also the teachers are very friendly and fun, certainly give us energy during the classes - Love them!

I went to my first class at AE Dance last week, the class was great. Easy to follow directions to get there, friendly teacher, nice space to dance. Even though I was very rusty, it didn't matter, dances were talked through and nobody judged. See you next week!!

Having never done a dance class in my life and lacking all coordination, I was a bit nervous about these courses.However, I joined the beginner's tap and the instructor, Lucy, is brilliant. She finds a middle ground that pushes everyone's comfort zone while also feeling accessible.I'm looking forward to continuing at AE Dance + Fitness. The whole company needs to be applauded and recognized for their work in creating a safe and accessible community for dancers of any level.

I’ve been tapping from a young age and then due to covid I had a break and struggled to get back into it. I moved full time to Bristol in November after commuting back and forth for a few years and still struggled to find a routine and somewhere for me to go but always wanted to get back into it. I was recommended AE dance & fitness and so happy I finally started. It’s been great for me not only reignited my passion for tap dancing but also letting me meet lots of friendly new people. I found it so welcoming and this experience was the perfect blend of skill-building and comfort, and I can't wait to continue my tap journey with them!

Exactly what I’ve been looking for in an adult dance class in Bristol! Moved to the city just under a year ago and had been meaning to get back into dancing. A friend told me about AE Dance + Fitness so I’ve given it a whirl over the past few weeks and tried out the Musical and Commercial dance classes, they’ve been great! Fun music, super friendly and talented instructors and even though it’s early days, I’d say it’s probably a great way to meet new people in the city and learn a new style of dance! Classes are a good level of challenging but also leave you with a sense of achievment at the end. Plus everyone cheers each other on - who doesn’t want that in the middle of your week!

AE Dance classes are truly inclusive and so much fun; they really welcome both those with a dancing background and complete beginners. One thing I love most is that there is no pressure to attend classes every week, and you can try different classes if you want to, which is fantastic for people with busy lifestyles and those who want to try a bit of everything. Having attended the lyrical contemporary and musical theatre classes, the atmosphere has been welcoming and comfortable and there’s a real encouragement to ensure you get what you want out of the class, e.g. to distress after work. Highly recommend!

I recently moved to Bristol and wanted to join a dance class to meet more people. The introductory package was such good value and I was able to try my hand (or feet) at Musical Theatre, Tap and Jazz.Having never done a dance class before I was really nervous before joining, but as soon as I arrived the atmosphere was so positive and friendly. I immediately felt welcomed and had a great time. Lucy and Angie were great instructors who pitched the session just right (which can’t be easy when there are such varying ability levels in the room!).Needless to say, I’ve had a great start and am looking forward to joining some beginners classes next term.

Went to my first AE Dance & Fitness class tonight - Ballet Barre Exercise - and absolutely loved it! Angie makes you feel really welcome and involved and it really doesn’t matter if you don’t get everything right away. Such a good workout and really fun too.
