The Dance Spot is a street dance school in Clacton and Colchester.

We’re a street dance school teaching hip hop, acro, contemporary, and choreography. Our classes run in a supportive, modern space where kids can build confidence, creativity, and real dance skills.

There are no exams and no pressure – just training that helps every dancer grow and enjoy what they do.

For those who want to push further, we also offer competition routes. Our dancers have achieved wins across the UK, qualified for world championships, and train with world champion instructors who know how to guide them there.
