Frequently Asked

About Studio Rentals

Can I book the same time slot every week?expand_more

Yes. Many of our instructors hold recurring weekly slots. Get in touch to check availability and set up a regular schedule.

Can I visit before committing?expand_more

Absolutely. We are happy to arrange a viewing. Contact us and we will find a time that works.

What is the difference between the two studios?expand_more

The Big Ballroom suits larger classes, performances, and anything requiring big movement or equipment. The Small Studio is ideal for classes under 15 people, private lessons, and focused rehearsal work. The ballroom also has a professional lighting system; the small studio has standard overhead lighting.

Can I use the curtain to make the ballroom feel smaller?expand_more

Yes. The large curtain divides the ballroom floor, which works well for instructors who want the quality of the big room without all 3,000 sq ft for a smaller class.
