The Dancebox

Halloween vibes 🎃👻❤️

The Dancebox just got greener…

We’ve been busy taking advantage of a rare half term break to make some improvements across all our spaces - including adding lots of greenery 💚

There’s still some things left on our to-do list but we think our visitors this week will really appreciate our efforts so far 💪🏻

A magical Sunday indeed 🥰❤️

This weeks sign is a little nod to last weekend… 😉

Another day another audition… the talented Jess has been in the studio today filming 💪🏻🔥

This week we’ve had the fabulous Sophie in the studio filming an audition self-tape ❤️ We simply love supporting local talent!

The Dancebox is 10!! 🥳🎂

Well it’s actually 11, but we were closed thanks to Covid so we are having a delayed celebration!

People often label us a ‘dance school’ but we aren’t, we are a studio – a venue for people who love & work within the arts.

But it’s so much more than just a ‘space’ - it’s a place that brings people together, from professional dance companies to young children to learn, create & enjoy dance!

We’ve come a long way in 11 years, the name itself originated from the size of our first premises which was a small 7m x 7m space – indeed it was a ‘box’. Now a decade later we have a town centre location with two studios, waiting areas, a pop-up shop – bigger facilities that we are constantly improving to better accommodate & serve our community.

The Dancebox is always a hive of creative activity from professional dance companies rehearsing their touring work, to dance photography & videography, from yoga to children’s dance classes, auditions to breakdance dance workshops – the studio is available to hire for a variety of uses.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has played a part in The Dancebox’s history – big or small – we appreciate all the love & support. It’s been such an amazing journey & we are excited to create & dance through the next decade with you all!

Front doors looking fresh 🥰❤️

We are so pleased to be open again for our dance community 🙏🏻

Happy Easter everyone!!

We are spending the bank holiday weekend getting ready to reopen 💪🏻

Looking forward to welcoming you all back very soon 🥳

We are so proud to say that we have received a Spirit of Barnsley award from the mayor for our ‘outstanding contribution to the community during the Coronavirus pandemic’ 🥰

One of the biggest things the Coronavirus has given us is a deeper connection with out dance family - despite being apart we have felt such love & support from everyone & we are beyond grateful ❤️

Thank you to everyone that nominated us & thank you to Barnsley Council for shining a light on those who are doing what’s necessary to support their communities during this difficult time. We don’t do it for the praise, but a surprise medal certainly made us feel good 🌈
