Aycliffe Dance Academy

ADA is not only a fantastic dance group, but a family. My daughter has thrived since she has joined, the support and encouragement all the staff and other dancers continuously give her really helps with her confidence. The dancing ability of all of the staff and children is amazing, their performances are always outstanding. Would highly recommend this group for any children who love to dance and sing xx

My daughter has been attending Aycliffe Dance Academy since 2013, she was 5 when she started and loved every minute of it. Millie is now 13 and still loves dance. Her passion for dance is sparked by the amazing staff at ADA!!
Everything that the staff do ensures that the children are central to all decisions made. They make sure that the children develop their own love of dance and they make everything fun.
The club do all of their own fundraising to raise money for things that will benefit the children, Christmas parties, end of year dance show, summer school etc. ADA is all about family and this shows in everything that they do
I can’t recommend them enough. They are all fantastic and work really hard for the children who attend.

Aycliffe Dance Academy is one of a kind. My kids have attended since ages 2-3 and my daughter now 11 still attends. The teachers put everything they have into the dance school. They have worked wonders with my daughter's confidence and she has grown so much, not just in ability, but emotionally and mentally too. All students are treated as equal no matter their ability. My daughter has has had fantastic opportunities of taking part in Cheer Leading competitions in Sheffield, and got her dream of being on stage in the annual shows. The school has a fantastic family feel and Emma goes above and beyond to ensure everyone is happy and having fun along side learning. I cannot recommend this dance school enough

Both my daughters love going to Ada. It’s a friendly, safe and happy environment. Their confidence has grown, along with their dancing and they’ve made some great new friends along the way. Emma and her team are professional, helpful and we love being part of the Ada family. I couldn’t ask for better dance school for my daughters, they love Ada.

I can't rate this dance school highly enough. My daughter has attended for 6 years and she has loved every minute of it. The choice of classes is amazing with something for everyone...I even did adult tap dancing which was so much fun and my son did Street dance!! What really makes ADA stand out for me though, is that it is like one big family 🥰 All of the teachers are so kind and caring and Emma the owner goes above and beyond for all of the dancers. The support she offered through lockdown was testamount to this. I can only describe her as Wonderwoman!! I would absolutely highly recommend this dance school for your child.

An absolutely amazing dance academy/family. I can not recommend ADA enough. They go above and beyond for their dancers. Making each individual child feel special and loved . Their is no doubt in my mind that this is the perfect fit for our daughter.

Aycliffe Dance Academy is an amazing dance school. Everybody Is part of the family and is made to feel important/valued no matter what their ability! Emma and the other dance teachers are excellent, as well as teaching the technical skills they also promote so many other skills and qualities in the students such as resilience, determination, kindness, patience and teamwork. I would definitely recommend ADA!!

Aycliffe Dance Academy is a fantastic dance school. Emma and her team call themselves the ADA family, which they demonstrate with their caring actions to all their students. They just go the extra mile, which was shown during Covid, where they continued with free dance video's, competitions, and kept students motivated for their return to dancing. I would highly recommend this dance school. Well done Emma and the team for offering such an amazing dance experience.

My little girl has been attending Ada since she was just over 2 1/2 years old she loves going the the team and teachers made me so relax about the whole situation of leaving her I know she in good hands. Since starting back after COVID lockdown the team still have gone to beyond and back still to me feel more relaxed and go out there way to provide that all dancers are safe and all parents are updated with new way/thing put in place with videos of new systems and a walk around if needed explaining everything Obviously with a 2m gap and PPE on. Would 100% recommend this dance school to everyone thank you for everything you have done for my daughter and for keeping her safe xxx

Ada is a fab place for my daughter who has been attending since she was 3 (now 11), there’s an array of different classes and the opportunity to perform in the ADA show and other events have done wonders for my daughters confidence, she’s made a lot of friends and loves All the ADA teachers & helpers. Emma / Mammy Angela always has the kids best interest at heart, I would recommend Ada 110%.

My daughter, now 8, joined ADA back in 2015, followed by my son when he was just two and half years old. I also attend the Adults Dance class for a bit of fitness, some “me time“ and a great laugh. Emma, Mammy Angela, Becca, Nikki and the rest of the ADA Team are, without doubt, the most talented, caring, professional and inspiring people you could ever want to teach and nurture your child(ren) through their dance journey.
Throughout Lockdown ADA continued to offer dance classes, fun family activities/games, encouraged the children to get involved in activities to boost their confidence and self esteem (all for free) and produced amazing videos showcasing their talented students whilst paying their respect for VE Day celebrations.
There is no pressure to take part in the annual shows or the exams process. The dance fees are very reasonable; I think fees have only increased by a few pence in the last 5 years.
ADA care very much for each and every student, this has been even more apparent in the way they have welcomed students back to dancing following lockdown. They have gone above and beyond to keep the children safe whilst offering them a sense of normality in this crazy world right now and I thank them from the bottom of my heart.
ADA’s motto is “We Are Family” and I am proud to be apart of this amazing family.
I highly recommend this dance school.

My son has been going here 4 years , and absolutely loves it really are a dance family.
Even in tough covid time Emma Williams the owner has come time and time again with ideas to ensure the kids have either had dance via zoom , zoom.discos Christmas show , just fab fab fab .

Aycliffe Dance Academy is an amazing dance school who make everyone of all abilities feel welcome. My daughter was unsettled when she first started however Emma helped her through this and now can’t wait to go as her confidence has grown each week.

Emma and all of the staff have done such amazing things making the dance school covid safe and allowing the children to return to some form of fun and normality. Staff are so friendly, so helpful and are there to answer any questions you have. My little boy went for his first lesson and came out full of confidence!
