Summer at LESTA Studios in Knaphill is a chance to train, play and perform without the usual term-time timetable. In 2026 we are running two programmes side by side: a half-day circus and carnival camp for juniors, and a four-day intensive for dancers who want a fuller week of technique, creativity and a live showing.
Both take place at our purpose-built studios on Lansbury Estate, with parking immediately outside. Early-bird prices are held until 30 April.
