GRAHAM SCHOOL OF DANCE

The Graham School of Dance was founded in 1990 by Miss Aileen Graham in Bishop's Stortford. Since then, the school has expanded to branches at Stansted, Church Langley and teaching at Bishop's Stortford College.


The school teaches R.A.D. Ballet and I.S.T.D. Tap, Modern and Jazz, to a very high standard, to children from the age of three. This standard is maintained by the dedicated and highly qualified teachers in the team. A strong emphasis is placed on Ballet as this is the basis of all dance and at least one lesson a week is compulsory for children attending the school.
