Dance classes in Wimbledon are mostly small, independent schools rather than big studio complexes. Ballet leads by a wide margin, with several schools in and around Wimbledon Village, while ballroom, Latin social dancing and children's street dance fill out the rest of the list. Most venues are a short walk or bus ride from Wimbledon station; a few sit further out at Raynes Park, Merton Park and South Wimbledon.
The best-reviewed schools include Siegeris Dance, the Wimbledon Salsa and Bachata Club, JV Dance Fitness and The Village School of Dance. We only list schools with a location in the area, and leave out listings whose address is elsewhere.
Studios are ranked by Google rating weighted by the number of reviews. Filter by style below, or use the map to see which venue is closest to you.

Getting There and What to Expect
Wimbledon station (District line, Thameslink and Tramlink) is the nearest stop for most of the studios listed. South Wimbledon and Colliers Wood, both on the Northern line, are closest to the venues on the Merton side.
- Village halls and churches: several schools teach in church or village halls rather than studios, so confirm the exact address and room with the school
- Longer walks: venues in Wimbledon Village and Raynes Park are roughly 10-30 minutes on foot from the station, so check the walking time on the profile or plan a bus
- Timetables: each school publishes its own classes, term dates and fees; its profile here has the contact details and website
