We have worked with a lot of satisfied students over the years, below is some of our most recent feedback
One of my favourite classes. Sophie never makes it too difficult you can’t do an exercise at all, nor too easy you don’t feel challenged. The exercises are fun and varied, with something new every time. Sophie is fun, enthusiastic, encouraging and with an obvious passion for dance and performing.

You don't know how much it meant to us to still have the opportunity to learn ballet as adults, and the devotion the teachers put in during the dance shows. Thank you KNT!

Leonie is the best RAD teacher! Very encouraging and supportive. Her teaching is full of clarity and precision!

I danced professionally in my younger years, and outside of the studio I trained in growing up, I had a very hard time finding ballet classes that suited me as an adult. When I moved to Manchester, I found KNT Danceworks and never looked back. Karen’s classes gave me the difficulty level I needed and a judgement-free space to be myself in class. I took the Advanced Level but by no means would say that level is only for ex-professionals. We all shared that space together and took it to the difficulty level we wanted. Everyone (including Karen) was friendly, open and encouraging of each other. An extra benefit was the opportunity to perform, which is something you so rarely get at our age. It really satisfied the old (young) dancer in me and I am so grateful to have had an opportunity for my husband to actually watch me dance, instead of just hearing about it from my stories. I cannot thank Karen and KNT Danceworks enough for allowing me the chance to continue my love of ballet as an adult

My favourite thing about this class is how friendly and welcoming it is - no one makes you feel silly for making a mistake or not knowing how to do something. Everyone is friendly and approachable, the class is full of a great mix of people, and Karen is always happy to answer questions and give helpful corrections!

was a bit skeptical at first, but now really appreciate it. The benefit of strengthening the core extends beyond ballet! Persistence is the key and Karen can always find all sort of ways to make sure you ache for the whole week till the next class!

Personally, I love the fact that I can still learn ballet, get better at it, and perform it on stage as an adult. I had never imagined that something so difficult could de-stress me so much and give me a great deal of enjoyment. The ballet classes have taught me to move gracefully, and appreciate the music and the rythme of my own body. I’ve gained fitness, friendship, confidence, and happiness through ballet. All this is thanks to you, Karen, who created this platform for us

Before I taught, I was a student and KNT (and specifically Karen!) changed my life.
KNT is such a special place, so much more than a dance school!
