Every credential on this page was earned on merit — through audition, competition, or national selection. No shortcuts. No exceptions.
Every single routine entered at the 2026 Essex Regional qualified for Blackpool Nationals. 34 entered. 34 through. Six consecutive years at the national finals.
The IDTA Scholarship places pupils in the top 75 in the country — assessed by an independent outside examiner, not the school. ASD Dance has produced nominees in two separate disciplines.
Most schools never reach this level in even one discipline. We've done it in both Freestyle and Street Dance.
83 Honours awarded in our most recent IDTA examination session. The IDTA uses a medal system rather than traditional grades — pupils progress through levels with external examination at each stage.
Honours is the highest mark available. 83 in a single session reflects the consistent standard across every age group and discipline at ASD Dance.
Over 27 years, ASD Dance has raised funds for causes close to the school's heart. The dance floor has always been a place for community — and that extends beyond the studio walls.
Many ASD Dance pupils have been attending for over ten years — and have received Outstanding Achievement Awards to mark it. That kind of loyalty doesn't come from obligation. It comes from a school that genuinely gets it right, year after year.
