Studio Hires Rate Card
The Dance Space is a welcoming home for everyone. We welcome a variety of activity into our building and encourage a diverse range of people and organisations to use the spaces. We operate a sliding scale pricing structure, for information on these rates, please see below:
Standard Rate: Commercial organisations, including schools and universities who wish to hire space for, e.g. workshops, rehearsals, commercial filming or photography, team building events, meetings, conferences and awaydays
Charity Rate: Charities and artists in receipt of public or private funding via project or other grants, that wish to hire space for regular classes, workshops, rehearsals, meetings, conferences and awaydays. By way of supporting our community of teachers, we offer the charity rate to teachers who hire the studios to run classes at The Dance Space.
Independent Artist Rate (non-funded): We have a limited amount of space to offer at a reduced rate to non-funded independent artists (currently not in receipt of any public or private funding). This space is available for rehearsal, research and development purposes only (class hire is not available at this rate, please refer to the charity rate above).
If you are unsure which rate applies to your organisation or activity, please contact studios@southeastdance.org.uk to discuss.
