Welcome to the Reigate School of Ballet and Commercial Dance, Reigate's leading and longest-running dance school. Established in 1963, this family-run school has been nurturing and teaching over 1200 happy local children in a non-competitive and friendly environment. With an unrivalled reputation within the South East, the school is led by West End professionals, highly experienced commercial performers, and ISTD Deputy Examiners.
The Reigate School of Ballet and Commercial Dance offers a wide range of dance styles, including ballet, tap, modern, commercial street, musical theatre, acro, and contemporary. In addition, students have the opportunity to take LAMDA and singing lessons, as well as private classes. The school boasts a proven track record, with past students being accepted into top vocational schools such as GSA, Doreen Bird, and the Central School of Ballet.
One of the unique aspects of this dance school is their emphasis on performance. While technique and core fundamentals are taught, students are given numerous opportunities to showcase their skills. The school organises bi-annual main shows, annual performing arts shows, public performances at local events, and even large-scale professional performances at prestigious London venues including the Royal Albert Hall and Her Majesty's Theatre.
The Reigate School of Ballet and Commercial Dance has received multiple awards and rave reviews. One parent states, “I'd give 6 stars if I could. There is such a wide range of styles and a great timetable for all ages. As a result of the high standards and excellent shows put on locally, the school is one of the largest in the area.
Despite this, it has a wonderful family feel. What has always impressed me is how the teachers know each child and treat them as individuals.
Another parent shares, “RSB is a fabulous dance school offering classes in many dance genres. Our daughter has wonderfully talented, caring, and dedicated teachers and has made some amazing dance friends during her time with the school.
The Reigate School of Ballet and Commercial Dance also offers two free trials, allowing prospective students to experience their classes before committing. With a focus on ensuring children not only learn but also enjoy the art of dance, this school is a top choice for aspiring dancers in Reigate, Redhill, and Merstham.
