What does this mean for you? Absolutely no changes to your classes - however, this page will soon be deactivated, and all of our content, events and updates will be found on the NI Dancesport page (which many of you already follow!)

We are wrapping up our final classes as Live To Dance EU this week, and after a Christmas break, will be returning for a new term as NI Dancesport.

Thank you all for your continued support 💜
