TS Training Academies Expands to 10 Locations Across the UK and Dubai

TS Training Academies now operates across 10 training locations in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Dubai, providing elite supplementary dance training throughout the year. Our growing network includes nine UK locations and our Dubai venue, bringing the TS training experience to more dancers.

The aim remains consistent: to complement the work of home dance schools with access to industry faculty, focused studio training and opportunities for individual development. Expansion means more choice of location, while keeping the value of the teaching at the heart of the programme.

Dance Training in Northern Ireland

Our Antrim location is hosted at Doogan Dance Academy, extending TS Training Academies into Northern Ireland. It joins our venues across England and Scotland as part of the UK programme.

Northern Ireland has an adjusted fee structure to accommodate travel and accommodation costs: £165 on acceptance, followed by 12 monthly payments of £56.50. The full annual fee can also be paid upfront, with a yearly agreement running from January to December.

TS Training Academies in Dubai

Our Dubai training location is The Curve Building, Entrance A, 4th St. Dubai follows a different training structure, with eight sessions in total, and training fees are available on request only.

Families should use the Dubai-specific session dates shown on our website. Confirmed 2026 dates are 24th October, 21st November and 12th December; the January-to-May 2027 dates are currently to be confirmed.

UK Session Times and Training Structure

Our UK locations each offer 16 Sunday sessions throughout the year. In England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, juniors aged 10–13 train from 10am to 1pm, while seniors aged 14+ train from 1:30pm to 4:30pm.

Session dates vary by location, so families should check the appropriate venue in the training-date selector. The UK timetable should not be assumed to apply to Dubai's separate eight-session programme.

More Than Just Learning Choreography

Across TS, hands-on training is supported by technical exercises, 1-to-1 feedback opportunities, scorecard assessments and annual written reports. Class Target Cards and Class Takeaway Cards are new for 2027, encouraging dancers to set a focus and reflect on what they have learnt.
