Yes the studios are really beautiful and yes it's crazy that a boys school has 3 dance studios all air conditioned, mirrored, barred and sprung !! We are very lucky to be the only dance school using their facilities. Trains to Eden Park from Charing Cross are the quickest and simplest route, but many buses stop just up the road too. All places are now filled with students coming from as far away as the Lake District. Really excited to welcome all the students x
