Fantastic experience: My daughter attended tds for around 2 years, it developed his initial love for cheer, the coaches are brilliant, enthusiastic, mindful, caring, and have a genuine love and want for every child in there to succeed. It was a pleasure watching my daughter learn new skills and her confidence levels sky rocket, she has a difficult time in school but tds gave her a sense of family and loyalty and I will be forever grateful for everything they taught and instilled in my child, and all for only £20 a month the price is a bonus but the quality of their work deserves so much more, will forever love our tds family

Negative experience: Such a unprofessional group, everyone is equal. You organize the holiday club, ask common on facebook for booking. You replied everyone's common expect mine, I need explaination.

Hi Nicole,

Its very unfortunate that you have left a negative google review before addressing this with us first. There are over 120 comments on our free holiday club post, and whilst we recognise its an error on our part for missing your comment as the page refreshes, this review seems quite hasty and unjust.

Your daughter has attended our free holiday camp once before, you've requested information for the dance class sign up process, and you've commented on the post again asking for a place for our upcoming free Easter holiday club.

If you would like to discuss this any further feel free to contact us directly on 07742746702.

Kind Regards,
Mercedes

Fantastic experience: My girl has danced with TDS and attended the gymnastics classes for 9 years now . She has flourished from a shy little petal into a fully blossomed sunflower!( now 12) She Dances competitions and shows in a variety of dance genres. ( often winning ) She has recently been joined by my gran daughter who is 4 years old and in her first outdoor carnival event this weekend ! My child has complex health needs and staff are always on the ball keeping her safe and having medical training to ensure her safety is paramount x My older child ( now 27 ) used to dance too and attended lots of enrichment activities including travelling to Ireland for a fully funded dance experience . My girl attends a variety of free , part funded and discounted lessons across 5 days of the week , keeping her busy , fit , included and passionate . The staff are friendly and approachable and very supportive to all the families who attend their classes

Fantastic experience: My grandchildren started dancing here a few years ago and moved onto competition squads, both are thoroughly enjoying their journey. A fabulous place for children to grow and enjoy their experience with confidence in dance, kick boxing, gymnastics.... A fantastic team of coaches led by the owner of the studio, Mercedes, who all bring out the very best in each child. I would definitely recommend TDS Cheer and Dance to children of all ages and adults too, come along and join our TDS family

Fantastic experience: My daughter 4 years old has attended for 2 years. The confidence she now has is amazing, she went from shy and timid to a confident performer. She now will join in class and follow instructions. The show atmosphere is amazing and the pride they have coming off stage is priceless.

Thanks SO much for this shining review! We absolutely ADORE our children & put everything into organising their lessons, events and competitions to create a healthy learning atmosphere & memories they can cherish for years to come. Thanks so much xx

Helen Coughlan 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Myself and my daughter's​ aged 10 & 17 have been a part of TDS dance within Activeme Studios for many years and have watched it go from strength to strength. My daughters very much enjoy attending classes at the studio but for me as a parent it's not all about dance, it's about confidence building, working as a team, not being judged, being treated as an equal, it gives the children something to focus on, but most importantly the friendships/bond's they have formed over the years. The owner of Activeme Studios, Mercedes, also puts back into the community by taking group's of children to dance at various charity events​ throughout the year. I would highly recommend Activeme Studios to anybody thinking of taking their children to dance, kick boxing,drama or gymnastics

Thank you for this amazing review. We try our hardest to make this a community studio and to get involved in anyway we can. Thanks so much for all of your support. X

Sam 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: My son goes to Active Me studios twice a week. He started dancing there when he was 3yrs old. He's now 6 and joined the comp team in January. He competes in competitions throughout the year, performs in 2 shows a year as well as charity fun day events in the community! He loves it and loves the dance coaches, who are all professional and friendly. They teach their dancers amazing routines as well as helping them be good team players. My son's confidence is through the roof and he loves being at the studio and on the stage. I am very proud of how far he has come and also proud be a part of the TDS family!

Leanne 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: My daughter attends regular dance classes at Active Me, she loves being part of the TDS family. She is taught, not only various styles of dance inc hip hop, pom, lyrical & contemporary, but is also taught how to act in a responsible manner, to empower one another, work together in a team, how to be healthy, look after her body, be proud of each member & encourage each other to be the best they can. I would recommend all the classes at Active Me.
