Good staff team, very welcoming. I've danced here since I was a little girl, it's like a second home. BBO syllabus, good pass rates and excellent teachers.

Great dance school. Very welcoming and kind teachers. I have danced here for a year and it already is one of my favourite places to go to. It also has spacious studio’s. This really is a very good school that many people:kids and adults, will love.
"Exceptional Standard"
– Parent
We have had multiple generations of family attend Sarah Anne Westcott Dance Studios. Our youngest daughter currently attends many classes and we would not send her anywhere else. The teaching quality has always been to an exceptional standard. Everybody in the school has always made us feel very welcome. This is the best dance school in North Devon.

FAQ's
Can my child try a class before enrolling?
Absolutely! We offer a 4-week trial for just £20. Think of it like a class pass, your child can try as many classes in their age group as they like during those four weeks. It’s a great way for them to explore, find their favourites, and settle in before choosing the right class for them.
Absolutely! We offer free trial classes every week. Just book online or give us a call.
What should my child wear to class?
Comfortable clothing like leggings, joggers, or shorts with a t-shirt is perfect for moving freely. We will do our best to find a pair of dance shoes they can borrow while they settle in.
Comfy clothes they can move in! Barefoot or sneakers are fine for most beginner classes.
Do you hold performances or showcases?
Yes! We celebrate with an informal end-of-year showcase, plus a spectacular biannual school production at the Queen’s Theatre in Barnstaple. Our performance company also shines at community events throughout the year.
