Where Little Feet Dance, Imagination Soars and Magic Comes to Life!
Magical Tots is a unique and creatively-entwined class where children learn through dance. Here, tiny dancers are introduced to the enchanting world of pointy toes and jazz hands. At the same time, they ignite their creativity and imagination while building essential skills from the Early Years Foundation Stage.
So pick up your magic wand or sword, put on your tutu or cape and get ready to shine!

What age is Magical Tots for?
Magical Tots is for children from 18 months up to 6 years. We then group children by age, so every class suits their stage of development.
Do parents stay during the class?
Yes. At Magical Tots, parents stay with their child throughout the weekly class. It’s also a lovely chance to bond and share the magic together.
What should my child wear?
We suggest comfortable clothing that’s easy to move in. Tiny dancers can wear ballet shoes or trainers or they can simply dance in bare feet. Of course, tutus, capes and costumes are always welcome too!
Can we try a class first?
Absolutely. New families can book a two-week trial, so your little one can enjoy two sessions before you sign up for the term.
From Shy to Shining
Over 80 families rate us excellent. In fact, many tell us their shy little one now walks into class beaming, joins in with confidence and can’t wait for next week.
We Can’t Wait to Welcome You!
Spaces in each class are limited. So book your two-week trial today and become part of the Magical Tots family.
