Our Story

Founded in 2020, LC Dance provides a variety of dance classes including Tap, Ballet, Modern/Jazz, Lyrical, and Contemporary for children aged 4 to 16+ years in Brentwood, Essex.

We encourage every student to progress at their own pace. Our classes are designed to accommodate mixed abilities, ensuring everyone finds their place!

We are committed to making dance enjoyable and exciting for all, while also focusing on nurturing strong technique in our young dancers.

Dance is something that should be enjoyed, and we want our students to dance for the love of it and not just for exam results.

Where every child finds their spotlight

Our core belief is that every child should have the opportunity to enjoy dancing,
regardless of their prior experience or dance education.

We nurture our dancers by providing performance skills and technical training, offering both technique classes and troupe sessions on Saturday mornings.

Meet the Principal

Lydia Coomb

Lydia has been dancing since she was 4 years old, beginning her journey at the Pirouette School of Dance in Blackheath and Ingatestone, where she trained in Tap, Ballet, Modern, and Lyrical styles. At the age of 13, she began assisting in classes, and by 17 she became a full staff member while also starting her teacher training with the UTD examining board. In 2013, at 18, Lydia pursued further education at a vocational dance college in South East London to enhance her skills in Ballet, Contemporary, and Jazz, performing across the country in theatres such as Her Majesty’s, The Shaftsbury Theatre and Sadler’s Wells.

Lydia's passion for dance, commitment to excellence and her love of teaching the next generation were the driving forces behind opening her own school, LC Dance, in 2020. Her dedication to nurturing young dancers is evident in her teaching style, which combines technical precision with creative expression.

At LC Dance, Lydia fosters an environment where students are encouraged to explore their individuality while mastering the fundamentals of dance. Her holistic approach to teaching not only helps students excel in their development but also instills a lifelong love for dance. With each class, Lydia inspires her students to reach their fullest potential, ensuring that they leave the class not only as better dancers but also as more confident individuals.
