About the academy

A multicultural
performing arts academy.
Established 2013.

Warriorz has been teaching in Hertfordshire for over a decade. What began as one studio in Stevenage now runs 27 classes a week across three sites, and has put dancers on world championship podiums, in national music videos and on brand campaigns.

Mission

Why the academy exists

To inspire young talented people in a fun, safe and creative environment. As well as help develop those who are passionate about pursuing a professional career in dance.

Zara Richards, founder — the academy's own mission statement, unchanged.

The work

Beyond the studio

Training here is not theoretical. Dancers from this academy have gone out on professional jobs, and the teachers who prepare them are still working in the industry themselves.

  • Sony — Friends, music video.
  • Untilted — clothing brand shoot.
  • Music videos for UK artists.
  • Regular performance opportunities through the year.

Where we teach

Three studios, one academy

Stevenage is the home studio at King George Pavilion and runs six days a week. Luton and Hatfield each run a full block on their day. Every site books through the same system, so a family can move between them without starting again.

  • Stevenage — King George Pavilion. 19 classes, Monday to Saturday.
  • Luton — Chantry Primary Academy, Tomlinson Avenue, LU4 0QP. Saturdays.
  • Hatfield — Hatfield Leisure Centre, Travellers Lane, AL10 8TJ. Mondays.
