Shooting Stars has amazing teachers which has a very good connection with students and parents. We feel like a big family. My daughter started with one class a few years ago and now she has 5 dance classes a week which she loves to do . She has made many friends. As a parent I am really proud of her progress and how she enjoys doing this. Shooting stars has also made and amazing experience for my daughter's birthday. I give this dance a 10/10 !!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Mrs Jablczynski Parent

From the moment our daughter stepped into her very first tap and ballet class at Shooting Star Dance Academy, we knew we’d found something truly special. Over time, she’s grown not only in skill but in confidence—and her love for dance has blossomed beyond anything we imagined. She now proudly performs in tap, ballet, and acro, and watching her light up on stage during shows has become a treasured experience for our whole family. The teachers are the heart of this academy. Their care and encouragement have created a safe, inspiring space where our daughter feels supported to try new things and shine in her own way. It’s more than just learning steps—it’s about building confidence, joy, and lifelong memories. We’re incredibly grateful to be part of the Shooting Star family.

My daughter has been dancing for Shooting Stars Dance Academy since 2023. She started with street dance and as she became more confident and her dancing skills developed, she started doing acro and musical theatre. She absolutely loves dance, she enjoys spending time with other children with the same passion which is enhanced by the fantastic teaching staff. They are patient, enthusiastic and committed to the children. A big thank you to Miss Anya who my daughter absolutely adores and has helped develop her into the little dancer she is today.

I am 8 years old and have been dancing with Shooting Stars Dance Academy since October 2022, I really really really love doing it, it's always fun, it's amazing and always makes me smile. The teachers are really really kind and thoughtful, they are very helpful when I'm upset, feeling unwell or unsure of moves. I really enjoy the performances so we can show others what we can do as a school and that we can get dressed up and wear make-up and that we get a chance to maybe earn a trophy. I like doing my exam and receiving a certificate and maybe a trophy at our awards ceremony. I love my SSDA uniform because I get a choice of what I want to get and it is comfortable.

My daughter has been dancing with this school since October 2022 and she loves it. The teachers are amazing and easy to talk too about any worries or personal problems. I love watching the performances they hold twice a year. My daughter absolutely loves this school and her teachers, she is due to move from infants to juniors after her performance and is super excited about it and I couldn't be prouder of her or grateful for the school.

Isla has been with Becky since she was two and a half for over eight years now! She loves her dance lessons and taking part in annual shows and competitions. Becky and her team of teachers always have a smile on their faces for the children and it's clear to see they love what they do.
