THE KATIE PHILPOTT
SCHOOL OF DANCE

At KPSD we welcome, inspire and nurture every child through each stage of their dance journey. Whether that will be for fun and the pure joy of dance and self-expression or to excel and flourish into the world of the arts, we aim to ignite their passion and confidence to be the best they can be.

ABOUT OUR DANCE SCHOOL

After a successful career as a professional dancer, I established KPSD in my hometown in 2000 to celebrate and share my passion for dance with my local community.

Over the years, we have grown into one of the area’s leading dance academies, offering multi-genre dance and musical theatre classes to two to 18-year-olds.

Based in Mirfield, in the heart of West Yorkshire, KPSD provides a safe and welcoming environment where dance is enjoyed for fun and fitness alongside being a respected ISTD examinations centre.

Highlights of our school year include acclaimed dance and choreographic shows which are professionally produced and staged at the Lawrence Batley Theatre and many community performances at local events which we always enjoy supporting. 

istd memberTwo-time My Mirfield Awards winner, KPSD is proud of its reputation for excellence and an ambassador for the world of dance and many of our students have gone on to careers in dance.

As founder and Principal at KPSD, I am proud to work alongside a wonderful team of professionally trained, dedicated and inspirational dance teachers.  

I also take great pride in personally welcoming new students to our family of dancers and our sign-up process is simple and hassle-free. To find out more email at katie@katiephilpott.co.uk and I will help you find the appropriate classes for your child and arrange a free trial. 

Although we are now in our 21st year and enjoy being the area's largest dance school, our ethos is focussed on creating a friendly and easy-going environment where new students feel at home from day one. 

I look forward to hearing from you!

"Katie Philpott’s have always treated my daughter like a member of the family not just a business to them but a labour of love xx"
“The lessons are fun, keep you active and you get to see friends and make new ones. The teachers are really nice and supportive”
“My daughter has attended KPSD since she was four-years-old and not only has she grown as a dancer and performer, she has learned many other life skills too. As a result of her dancing, she has grown in confidence and learned discipline and punctuality.”
“At KPSD, students treat their teachers and peers with respect. Teamwork is a life skill they build - especially during dance shows – and they also learn how to perform independently.”
“Above all at KPSD, my daughter has fun in a safe environment where she meets many friends from school and outside school which has helped drive her social skills and communication.”
“At 17 now, my daughter will spread her wings next year and I know that KPSD have played the most significant role in getting her ready for that world, wherever her journey will take her.”
“I simply cannot speak more highly of the KPSD family who nurture and develop talents which stretch far beyond what you physically see in their dancing prowess.”
“Both my children love KPSD it has helped them grow in confidence and they have lots of fun learning dance. Through lockdown they have gone above and beyond to help this continue!”
“You can have full confidence that your child will be taken great care of at KPSD.”
“There is lots of variety of classes for girls and boys, it’s like a big family, especially at show time – the students absolutely love those times together, making dancing memories to treasure forever.”
