Welcome to Betty Townsend School of Dance

We are a 3rd generation family-run dance school, offering a wide range of dance and fitness classes for children and adults. Established by Betty in 1953, the school has been based on the Romney Marsh for the past 40 years.

Our students have the opportunity to participate in regular performances and dance board examination sessions, plus community events, professional workshops, charity fundraisers, trips and experiences. We also run school holiday activity clubs and throw fun parties for our dancers and their families.

We pride ourselves on being friendly and welcoming and believe that dance should be accessible to all. We have classes available from 3 through to 80+ years.
