KNT Danceworks

Great teachers been going 5years still love it

This review is only for kids classes.We had kids at this school for a couple of years. We hoped it will improve and stayed for longer than we should.The ballet classes start late most of the time.45 minutes, once a week, is not enough beyond grade1, so girls are constantly behind. They score very low marks on RAD exams. Some exam routines are tought last minute(!). Communication is very limited and mostly down to posters. Karen, the principal often doesn't reply texts and never have time to talk. I would say, if you're even a little bit serious about ballet for your children, avoid this school. If you just want to pass time and try it out in a very relaxed environment - that may be the place. Just be ready that your kids may actually sit and watch a class instead of practicing as some classes are joined and the level of kids differs. If you're above Grade 1, there is very little this school can do for you.Amy, the jazz/tap and contemporary teacher is amazing! Very helpful and open. Always finds time for a chat. I would recommend her classes over ballet at this school. Down side: the school doesn't prepare you for exams in those categories(tap/jazz, contemporary), so again... good for keeping the kids moving but not if you want your kids to progress.The price is a plus... the school is one of the cheapest on the market and offers discounts for multiple classes. 1-£5 2-£9.50 3-£13.50

My little one has been going to KNT ballet for 5 years and she loves it. Karen has grown the school while maintaining the friendly approach.

My daughter absolutely love KNT dance school , the teachers and staff so kind and friendly , helpful. ( works a magic to grow confidence for shy girl ) . ❣️

The friendliest dance school there is! I absolutely love taking classes at KNT, there is such a big variety of styles and levels from complete beginners to professionals so there is always something for everyone. All the teachers are really friendly and helpful which makes such a lovely, fun atmosphere. Highly recommend - would give 6 stars if I could!

The best Dance school in Manchester, the loveliest teachers who give so much of their time and energy for you to succeed. The most caring, hardworking and loveliest teachers, teach in the school, along with Karen. I have been going to Knt for almost 3-4 years, I always see familiar faces from years ago because it's that good. The home of Knt Dancework for 10 years was in Dance house which changed during covid time after a company acquired the building and changed it to a performing art school. Still we are lucky to have Knt Danceworks, there are especial occasions like day of dance who professional dancers and choreographers come as guest teachers and there's usually dance show that is put on once a year. The quality of teaching is quite high and you learn everyday technically and the classes are also very fun. There's a real community in KNT danceworks. I have suggested the school to any one who's interested or even background in Physical theatre or dance and adult dancers who are beginners. and to any parents that was looking for a good dance school for their kids.
