"As parents, it’s really exciting for us to see what (our daughter) is a part of and the professionalism and high standards of dance she is being exposed to. We are very happy and proud that she is a part of Chantry and she feels welcome and valued. She loves her associate classes and is learning so much."
(Associate Student's Parent)

"Never seen her so happy with her dancing, she loves it. ​Thank you to everyone at Chantry for making this possible for her."
(Associate Student's Parent)
 Chantry School's Associate Programmes nurture and develop the UK's most talented young dancers. Our standards are professional and exacting, and we aim to inspire our students with care and encouragment to reach new levels in their technique and artistic skills, and to prepare young dancers for full-time training and the professional industry.

Chantry School's Associate Programmes are designed to complement and run alongside the training that a dance student already receives at their dance school or college.

The programmes focus on developing technique and are studio based rather than performance based.
For our performance focussed programme, please visit the Origins pages.

All our programmes are taught by our outstanding faculty of award-winning industry professionals.
