Dance classes are offered by Barbara Mann Dance Academy and Theatre School. Classes are run evenings and weekends with a variety of lessons in dance and performing arts.
We hold a main production every two years at one of Bradford’s main theatres and we endeavour to hold annual parents viewing class and presentation, usually around July, enabling parents to follow their children’s progress.
Examinations are taken through the B A T D, as and when the students are ready.
The school was established in 1981 in Bradford, our ethos is fun, fairness, consideration, respect, equality and discipline. We believe dance should be available to all regardless of environment, background, ethnicity or ability.
Our fees are set so dance and performance is within everybody’s reach with easy monthly payments. After the first month, provided students continue with us, there is an additional payment to be paid, (TBA on application) which is deducted from the final months payment, when 30 days notice is given.
We welcome all students who feel they can maintain our ethos, as we benefit from a family based environment.
Although we strive to keep our ethos alive, we do still run classes with a disciplined element to ensure all students achieve their highest ability.

Examinations are taken through the B A T D, as and when the students are ready. We follow the B A T D syllabus and have had numerous successes with children being put forward for scholarships each year, and who successfully audition and enrol into full time ballet schools and performing arts academies.
We are also members of the CDET who are the government body who regulate the dancing world.
All students have a trial period of one month to enable us to place the student within the correct class, after this initial period, uniform is then required which we provide in a uniform pack at a discounted rate from the school, to ensure all students have the correct regulation wear.
Students have the opportunity to be study for BTDA Graded and Vocational examinations in Modern Jazz. They are taught a wide variety of Modern Jazz dance techniques and stylizations
We do two types of Jazz within our sessions- theatrical jazz is typical of what you see on the West End stage, whereas lyrical jazz is a more emotive style- typical of what you see on programmes such as 'The Next Step'.
Grade 3 Modern Jazz classes are offered by Didsbury Theatre School. We teach Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Drama, Singing, Musical Theatre, Hip Hop and Singing for 2-18 year olds in a friendly and professional environment.
The teacher adapts the routines to suit individuals so this class is suitable for all levels (except professional level).
Perfect for those of you who just want to learn to dance and have a good time. Or maybe you have a wedding coming up and would love to get up on the dance floor but you just don’t have the confidence. We can show how…..
