Wow! Can you believe it? Popdance is officially 15 years old! It feels like just yesterday that we kicked off our first dance class in St Albans in Hertfordshire, bringing together people of all ages to enjoy the fun, energy, and pure joy that dance brings.

From that very first step to today, it’s been an incredible journey—and we’re so proud of what we’ve achieved together over the past 15 years. From our humble beginnings in 2009, we’ve expanded into a global dance community, reaching across continents, ages, and abilities to share the love of dance with the world. Here’s to celebrating everything Popdance has stood for, and all that is yet to come.

The Popdance Journey

What started as a simple idea to make dance fun and accessible has grown into something truly remarkable. Our mission has always been to offer an inclusive and welcoming space where people could dance, regardless of experience. Whether it’s a birthday party, a corporate event, or regular classes, Popdance has brought people together to move, laugh, and build confidence on and off the dance floor.

Over the years, we’ve worked with schools, nurseries, and corporate clients to show that dance isn’t just a form of exercise—it’s a way to boost mental well-being, foster creativity, and build meaningful connections.

Milestones and Achievements

Throughout our 15-year journey, we’ve hit some incredible milestones:

• Global Reach: Popdance instructors are now teaching in over 20 countries, bringing the magic of dance to communities worldwide.
• Diverse Offerings: We’ve expanded to offer not just Popdance parties, but workshops, corporate team-building sessions, and dance programmes for nurseries and schools, ensuring that dance fits seamlessly into any occasion.
• Press Coverage: We’ve been featured in a variety of press outlets, recognising our unique and innovative approach to dance.
• Inclusive Dance: At Popdance, we’ve always prided ourselves on creating dance routines that are fun for everyone, regardless of age or ability—whether you’re 3 or 103, there’s a Popdance class for you!

Why Dance Matters

Dance is more than just a physical activity—it’s an outlet for self-expression, stress relief, and connection. At Popdance, we’ve seen firsthand the transformative power of dance. It builds confidence, improves mental and physical health, and fosters a sense of belonging. Over the years, we’ve watched our participants grow in self-esteem, make lifelong friends, and find new ways to challenge themselves.

We believe that dance has the ability to change lives, and it’s been our absolute honour to facilitate that change for 15 years.

Looking Ahead

As we look to the future, we’re excited about what’s next for Popdance. We’re always exploring new ways to grow, innovate, and make dance even more accessible. With a dedicated team of instructors, an ever-growing community, and a passion for dance, the next 15 years look brighter than ever.

Thank you to everyone who has danced with us, supported us, and helped make Popdance the success it is today. We couldn’t have done it without you, and we’re excited to continue this journey together.

Here’s to many more years of Popdancing, fun, and spreading the love of dance far and wide!

Happy 15th Birthday, Popdance!
