Motionhouse Classes

Throughout the year we lead a variety of classes and dance projects suitable for all ages and abilities from our Studio in Spencer Yard. These classes give you the chance to explore our style, learn new dance skills and make up some of your own moves.

Our classes are informal, energetic and fun and they're open to anyone with an interest in dance, no matter what experience you have. They run during every school holiday, apart from Christmas and are based on our company style, which is a mixture of contemporary dance, contact improvisation, lifts and acrobatic moves.
