Dance Classes for Families in Swindon

Some Swindon parents travel to our Fairford classes, about 25 minutes from the town centre via the A419. We offer RAD ballet, Dance Explorers and creative movement on Saturday mornings in small groups with qualified teachers. Swindon has dance schools of its own, and families who make the trip to Fairford tend to do so because they found that larger schools meant less individual attention for their child.

Swindon is one of the largest towns in Wiltshire and has a wide range of children's activities. The families who travel to Intune from Swindon are not doing so for lack of options locally. They come because they want smaller classes and a more personal teaching relationship than bigger commercial schools provide. The A419 to Fairford is a simple route and Saturday morning traffic is light.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there RAD ballet classes near Swindon for children?

Yes. Intune Dance at Fairford Community Centre offers RAD-certified ballet about 25 minutes from central Swindon via the A419. We also offer street dance and pre-school Dance Explorers. Saturday mornings, ages 2½ to 11, £10 trial.

How do I get from Swindon to Intune Dance in Fairford?

From Swindon, take the A419 north towards Cirencester, then turn onto the A417 east towards Fairford. The journey takes about 25 minutes in total. The Fairford Community Centre is on the High Street with parking available in the town.

Why would a Swindon family travel to Fairford for dance classes?

The main reason is class size. Swindon has larger dance schools, but at Intune classes are small so every child gets proper attention from a qualified teacher. Our teachers are RAD, ISTD and BBO qualified and they specialise in working with young children. It is not a generalist activity centre.

What if my child decides dance is not for them after the trial?

That is absolutely fine. The £10 trial is a no-strings taster. Some children take to it immediately, some need a second visit, and occasionally a child decides it is not for them. We would rather you know quickly than sign up and feel stuck. No hard feelings either way.
