Dance Squad at UEA

We have SHOW SQUADS for everyone of all abilities and COMPETITION SQUADS for those who have successfully made it into the competition team of their chosen discipline. In either squad, Dance Squad is a really fun, social club to be a part of. Our 'Competition Squads' for Contemporary, Jazz, Hip Hop and Lyrcial compete at national university competitions, such as, Surrey Dance Competition and compete on Derby Day. Our 'Show Squads' work on dance technique, learn versatile routines and have the opportunity to perform in dance showcases and the UEA Dance Show each year. We are a hugely passionate society and we welcome everyone to come along to our classes. We cater for everyone's ability, no matter if you are advanced or are dancing for the first time! We encourage everyone to try out as many disciplines as possible!
