Want to get a feel for the club and sport before joining?

We run Taster sessions during Welcome Week at the start of each academic year. Keep an eye on our club social media for updates or email us for more information.

Alternatively, head to the NTU Welcome website to see all available sessions!

Our club doesn’t offer any specific Play for Fun sessions. However, anyone who would like to dance will be able to join! Our club has no pressure in competition as we cater to all levels of performance.
We are looking to offer Play for Fun sessions later on in the academic terms.

Each year we accept a number of athletes on scholarships across a range of sports. Each scholarship application is judged on a case-by-case basis, and we encourage athletes from all sports who are interested to take a look at the information on the Sport scholarships web page. If you have any questions, please email sportscholarships@ntu.ac.uk or call +44 (0)115 848 3219.

We have a dedicated dance coach who coaches the advanced teams and some intermediate & open classes.
We also have a range of student choreographers who are all dedicated and extremely talented that lead the rest of our classes!

Got any questions? We'd love to hear from you. Get in touch: Ntudance@ntu.ac.uk
