Class Structure

Beginners Class — 60 Minutes

0–10 min

Primer and pulse

A warm-up built from the style itself — bounce, rock and isolations — so the groove is switched on before the routine appears.

10–25 min

Slow is the shortcut

The first section of the week's routine at half speed, counted aloud, with the fiddly transitions drilled rather than skipped.

25–40 min

Eight-counts connect

Sections chain together and repetition starts doing its quiet work — the choreography moves from your notes into your body.

40–50 min

Tempo and attitude

The routine comes up to track speed with facings and levels added — this is the sweaty, grinning part of the hour.

50–60 min

Sell it to the front

Full runs in small groups, performance face on. A filmed take is offered for anyone who wants the receipts; opting out is always fine.

About Commercial Classes in Exeter

Commercial is the style you already watch without naming it: the choreography built behind pop and R&B artists, engineered to read on camera. The skills underneath are specific — clean hits, tight timing, fast pick-up of new material — and they are trainable by absolutely anyone, which is what our Exeter hour is for.

You do not need London postcodes to learn this properly. Our choreographers teach the same phrase-by-phrase method used in professional rehearsal rooms: count it slow, clean the details everyone else rushes, then bring it to tempo with the performance switched on. In term time the university's dance-society crowd swells Exeter's commercial scene noticeably, and our class happily mixes students with nine-to-fivers and parents on a night off.

We are based centrally near Queen Street and Gandy Street, a short walk from Exeter Central — and worth knowing if you are travelling in, the climb from St Davids is real, so time it or taxi it. Private commercial sessions for groups run anywhere across Devon.

Your Commercial Journey

From first class to confident dancer — here is how it usually goes.

01

The vocabulary lands

Bounce, rock, hit

The commercial basics stop being copied and start being yours — the groove underneath every routine.

Counting without counting

Eight-counts move from your head into your ears, and picking up new phrases stops feeling like exam revision.

02

Detail separates you

Transitions, cleaned

The moments between the moves — where amateur routines fall apart — get deliberate attention and stop leaking.

Musicality arrives

You start hearing where the accents live in a track and placing movement inside the music rather than on top of it.

03

Performance switches on

Facings and levels

Choreography gains dimensions — angles to the front, drops and rises — and starts reading like the videos it came from.

The face joins in

Attitude is a taught skill, not a personality trait, and it is the difference between doing a routine and selling one.

04

Camera-ready

Full numbers, full-out

Complete routines danced at tempo with formations — stamina, precision and performance all firing at once.

Choose your ceiling

Stay for the weekly buzz or push toward auditions and showcases — the training method is the same one the industry uses.


Commercial in Exeter FAQ

Everything you need to know before your first class.

What exactly is commercial dance? +

The choreography made for music videos, tours and TV performances — a hybrid of street, jazz and pop styling engineered to look sharp on camera. If you have watched a pop video, you have watched commercial.

Is the Exeter class beginner-friendly, honestly? +

Honestly yes. Routines are taught from half speed with everything counted, and the room always holds first-timers. The style rewards commitment over background.

How much is a session? +

£8 flat, paid on the night, no block booking. Routines run in short blocks but each week stands alone well enough to drop into.

What do I wear and bring? +

Grippy trainers, layers you can sweat through and a water bottle. Knee sleeves are handy if you enjoy the occasional floor moment, but nothing special is required.

Where is the class held in Exeter? +

In the city centre around the Queen Street and Gandy Street quarter, close to Exeter Central — exact studio confirmed when you book.

Am I too old for a commercial class? +

No — the room is mostly adults of every decade, not teenagers. The choreography scales, the attitude does not care how old you are, and nobody is auditioning you.

Is the class filmed? +

Only the optional final run, and only for the people who want the clip for their own progress. Stepping out of shot is normal and completely unremarked.

Commercial or street dance — which class should I pick? +

Street is the umbrella of club-born styles taught for their own culture; commercial is the polished, camera-facing hybrid built from them. If your goal is music-video routines, start here; plenty of people do both.

How do I get started? +
