From Passion to Performance – Together as a Pride.

Welcome to your multi award-winning dance school, based in Woking, with a reputation for excellence.

The Summerscales Vision

In a world where children are constantly connected to screens and instant content, Summerscales offers a space to step out of the mould, and unlock their imagination. Through Dance, Acting and Singing, we encourage our students to tell stories, explore emotions and express themselves – learning who they truly are. Our mission is to help them unlock their heart, because true excellence isn’t about perfection – it’s about being your best, most honest self.

We Are Summerscales

Summerscales has produced award-winning performers and world-class choreography, but it’s our family atmosphere and genuine care that makes us different. A family where every student is celebrated as a ‘Gem’ – unique, brilliant, and valued.

Mini

Ages 3-6

Your Little One’s Always Dancing… If your child is always singing in the car or creating their own dance routines in the living room, it’s time to explore the world of dance and movement. Our mini classes are designed especially for children aged 3 to 5 who love to move, imagine, and express themselves.

Junior

Ages 7-10

We provide the perfect foundation for young dancers to thrive, build confidence, creativity, discipline and joy. Whether they’re dancing for fun or dreaming of performing, we believe in offering young dancers a well-rounded performing arts education so they can find the style they love most.

Senior

Ages 11-18

Our intermediate and senior level students will develop the discipline, focus and critical thinking skills that are essential, not only for the theatre industry, but for life beyond the stage. We challenge and inspire, with a focus on technique, building strength, and nurturing artistic individuality.

Fantastic Dance School! My daughter has been with Summerscales Performing Arts for three years and absolutely loves it. She started with just a couple of classes and is now proudly part of both the performance and elite teams. The school is incredibly supportive, passionate about dance, and has helped her grow in confidence and skill. Highly recommended!

My daughter has been attending dance classes at Summerscales since she was 3/4 and loves it! She started off with 1 or 2 classes and now attends a variety of classes throughout the week. Her confidence has grown massively and I feel like Summerscales has been a big part of that. She has performed on theatre stages and school fields and even had the opportunity to dance at Disneyland Paris! She has made some great memories and amazing friends and tells me that she never wants to leave!

We have loved SPA for over 30 years and multiple generations! Most recently my son and daughter have attended. We love the opportunities it provides, whether that be a fun dance class on a Saturday, right through to a broader dance education of multiple genres for those who want to do more, importantly including how to look after your body through areas like stretch. The dance exams have also helped to build skill and confidence and provide a real sense of achievement ❤️ We also love the performance opportunities provided that have helped my daughter grow in independence and confidence. Thanks to the team at SPA!

Our 10 year old daughter has danced with SPA since the age of 3 1/2 and loves it! The quality of teaching and support provided to the children is second to none, and the school has a lovely friendly, nurturing, family feel to it. There is a huge range of opportunities available, whether it be dancing for fun, graded lessons, performance opportunities in displays and shows, or elite/competition opportunities. Highlights have been dancing at the London Coliseum and at DisneylandParjs. We love being part of the Summerscales family and would highly recommend.

Attending Summerscales Performing Arts from age 9-18 not only taught me skills to equip me to become a professional performer; but also made me into the person I am today. Resilience, how to work in a team, commitment, time management, kindness, standing up for what you believe in as well as knowing you can do anything you put your mind to, are all qualities I learnt through the lessons at Summerscales as well as the personalities and modelled behaviour of the teachers themselves . I will forever be grateful for Tracey, Gemma & Laurretta for all they have done for me. Even though I left 8 years ago, I always know I will be welcomed back to a place that will always feel like home, with love and support. My forever family I was lucky enough to choose. Highly recommend to any child who makes up shows in their living room, just as I did.

My niece dances at summerscales and absolutely loves it, she beams with confidence in the videos my sister sends me of her performances. The costumes and choreography are outstanding and you can clearly see the hard work and passion that goes into all the training.

My daughter joined Summerscales at 5 years old, she is now 12 and still loves to dance and perform. She loves being part of the Summerscales family! The level of teaching is really high and whether they want to dance for fun or become professionals the skills they learn are invaluable. There are lots of performance opportunities which are always fun and for those who want to take it further can participate in competitions. They even went to Disneyland Paris to perform! Memories are made which last a lifetime.
