Welcome
We're the Medway School of Dancing! We were established in 1970 and have been a core part of the dance scene in Tonbridge ever since. We teach loads of different styles of dance and we'd love you to come along and have a go and join the Medway Success Story!

However!
We are NOT just a dance school, we try to be a social club where you can meet your friends and make new ones. We have a fully licensed bar that is open to members at competitive prices each evening during classes.
We run regular social evenings, with Ballroom and Latin dancing on a spacious maple floor under soft lighting.
As well as the Skylight Ballroom on the top floor, we have a modern mirrored ballroom on the first floor which we use for classes and personal tuition, regular cabaret nights and social events.
In addition, the main Skylight ballroom is available for hire to members for children's parties and adult functions at a very reasonable rate; bar and music also supplied!
Adult Classes
We specialise in teaching absolute beginners to enjoy dancing. There are regular new courses starting throughout the year, mainly end of September / January / April (after Easter) in Ballroom & Latin American, Salsa, Rock, Jive, Solo Salsa, Street Dance, Le Roc.
Ring for details or email us regarding how to book a place.
Tuition is by a team of the most highly qualified teachers in the South East led by Judy Wood Fellow N.A.T.D and Graham Mitchell (Fellow U.K.A. Former British Champion).
We are open for classes and private tuition 12 hours a day, 7 days a week - 50 weeks a year. We holds social evenings in our spacious 'Skylight Ballroom' with a specialised dance floor, soft lighting - licensed bar, as well as classes in our lower ballroom (dance studio) on first floor.
Children and Teen Classes
Learning to dance will help to develop poise and confidence. We offer a selection of Ballroom and Latin American classes for National association of Teachers Of Dancing (N.A.T.D) dancing tests, from 'Rainbow Awards' for the under 8's, to Popular Dance tests and medal tests.
Children showing ability and enthusiasm can join the Latin formation or disco teams and train for competitions if they want to. Many enjoy attending the weekly classes just for the fun of learning to dance!
