Cheam Dance Classes

The class is held at Cheam Parochial Rooms, which is on The Broadway in Cheam Village. There is parking available on this road or there is a pay-and-display car park at the back of the library. Being in such a central location there are lots of parking options nearby.

Unfortunately there isn’t anywhere inside the Parochial Rooms, where parents can wait while the class is on but being in such a central location there are lots of things to do in town. There is a Waitrose, Sainsburys, Costa Coffee, various pubs, bars and restaurants, the local library and Nonsuch Park is not far away.

For the first week parents are very welcome to watch during class, however we feel the children’s development and focus is much improved without people watching each week. This also allows for our regular watching weeks and performances to be an even better surprise for parents.

There are 20 children max in younger groups and there is always a class assistant present. There are up to 25 children in our older classes.

Children come to us from a range of different schools including St Dunstan’s Primary, Cuddington Croft Community School, Cheam Park Farm Infant School, St Alban’s, Cheam Baptist Pre-School, Cheam Common, Nonsuch Primary, Dorchester Primary, Brookfield Primary, Manor Park Primary, Ellingham Primary, Danetree Junior School, Banstead Community Junior School, The Avenue, West Ewell Infant School, Cheam Fields Primary and Robin Hood Junior School. Our older members attend Nonsuch High School, Sutton High School, Cheam High School and Wallington High School for Girls.

We have a good mixture of boys and girls in the class, this does change from term-to-term so be sure to ask when booking your trial in for a more accurate ratio.

Yes – there are sibling discounts available.

We like the children to wear leggings or joggers with a t-shirt or vest and jazz shoes, trainers or plimsoles on their feet. There is a Star Steppers t-shirt, which we ask all members to wear for shows and public performances. T-shirts are £10.00

Fees are paid in half-termly instalments (roughly blocks of 6-7 weeks approx.) We send all our members invoices via e-mail and parents pay (preferably) online by BACS or we also accept cash or cheque in class.

The end of term shows are included in the cost of the class and usually performed in the second to last class before the end of term. Every other year we put on a Big Show – in previous years this has been £25 per child and includes costume(s).
