Sunshine Studios

Salsa, Zumba, Tango, Bollywood, Street, Jazz you get them all here! If you want to learn professional dancing or just go for those odd classes when you feel like doing some exercise this is the best place for that in Manchester.
They have a wide range of classes so you can pick and choose and their membership fee is definitely pocket friendly. It is located right in the heart of Manchester City Centre so its very convenient if you want to go for a class after work instead of going to the gym (yawn).
Tip: Definitely attend one of their street dance classes, supposed to be the best in Manchester!

The clue’s in the name. Sunshine Studios is one happy happy joy joy kind of place.
We all know that the best way to get fit is to do something you enjoy, something that makes you not even realise you’re getting fit. That thing is not chugging along the concrete in trainers and leggings, tainting all your favourite iPod songs with memories of sweat and breathlessness. Nor is it doing eighty repetitions of the same thing. Nope, that thing, for many people, is dancing. And Sunshine Studios has the know how to get you on your two left feet.
You can take on a staggering variety of dance classes; there literally are tons to choose from, depending on whether you want to go classical, urban, modern or just try everything. The prices are reasonable and the studios are well kept, and you do feel like you’re in the Fame academy of the Northern Quarter. That being Fame the original series, not Fame Academy the BBC’s attempt to do Pop Idol. Sunshine Studios does what it says on the tin — it brings some brightness into your life and gets you moving too. Now I bet you can’t wait to test those moves out on your next night out.

Sunshine Studios is a dance studio specializing in street, urban and hip-​hop dancing.
Though its not really my thing personally, friends of mine swear by it as a great way to keep fit and have fun simultaneously (apparently possible) It only costs about £5 per session which is remarkable for an hour. Anyone can go from beginner to advance so its not an exclusive club by any means.
They put on Christmas/​Easter shows as well which are highly spoken of.
They also do some arts classes for things such as Hung Fu and Drama, and they even have a Play Writing course sometimes!
The list of things they offer, dancing and otherwise, is so extensive, and they are opening new studios as well, so go on the website and have a browse.

This place is amazing!
I’m so glad it’s doing so well, it’s such a great thing for the city to have!
