Who are Limelight?
Limelight Dance school is a local dancing school, teaching a variety of dance styles and
techniques with a fun and relaxed atmosphere. Above all, we believe dancing should be
fun and enjoyable. But we do encourage you to attain qualifications and take part in our shows
Established in 2000 (born out of Brook Grafton Theatre School of Dance) we have enjoyed
years of hugely successful shows at Grimsby Auditorium and I.D.T.A. examinations.

How old are our dancers?

Do we take dance exams?
We
have exam sessions in alternate years and have always achieved a 100% pass rate
with many obtaining “outstanding” and even
“highly commended”.
Our exams are accredited by the I.D.T.A.
Do we perform shows?
We
held dance shows at the Grimsby Auditorium in 2004, 2006 and 2008.
These follow a theme but
are generally an opportunity to show off all
of our dancers (approx 180) on one stage, dancing to all
of the
different types of dances that we learn, to a variety of music to
appeal to all music tastes.
Our shows have been for ‘one night only’
and been very enjoyable.
What do we wear?
During
dance classes, our dancers wear something light and flexible such as a
T-shirt and jogging
bottoms with trainers. As dancers progress they
tend to buy special dance shows (tap, jazz, ballet)
which we can obtain
direct from suppliers at reduced rates. Many dancers sell shoes, which
they
have grown out of, so we have a second hand box.
For
our shows, our dancers make their own costumes, which reduce the cost.
They are provided
with materials and patterns for these.
