Welcome to Joze School of Dance

Joze School of Dance is run by Jo Sproston. We opened in 2005 and we offer high quality, value for money dance classes for the local community at Operatic House, Ilkley. The school is affiliated to the International Dance Teachers' Association (I.D.T.A) and has a 100% pass rate.

About Joze

Jo is passionate about sharing her love of dance and is an associate member of the IDTA with qualifications in ballet, jazz and theatrecraft. She believes that dance is for everyone, as well as a fun way to get fit and stay active. Students are always encouraged to be the best they can be, and regardless of age, gender or ability, everyone is part of the same "Team Joze!".
