Welcome

The Welland School of Dancing has been holding classes in Stamford since 1964; Teaching the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) syllabus for Ballet, and the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dance (ISTD) syllabus for Tap and Modern Theatre. Current principal Victoria Fallow-Norton began as the Performing Arts Teacher in 2018 before taking over the role of Principal in 2024. Previous to this Maggie Purr A.R.A.D. R.A.D. R.T.S. ran the school from September 2010. Former principal, Anne Desbruslais F.I.S.T.D. C.D.E is still involved with the Welland School of Dancing in her capacity as school patron.

The school caters for both the serious student (many will go on to professional training and careers in the theatre), and the recreational pupil. Children are accepted from age 2 for Ballet, age 3 for Tap & Modern Theatre, age 4 for Performing Arts and Age 7 for Hip Hop, Acro and Contemporary. The school has its main full time dance studio in Stamford, based in the former Stamford Museum on historic Broad Street with pianists, ballet barres, mirrors and sprung floors; all essential for long term dance training. The school also holds adult classes in ballet, tap & jazz with beginners welcome.
