Our Jazz Dance Company is one of City Academy’s premier resident dance companies. With weekly evening rehearsals and regular in-studio showcases throughout the year, the Jazz Dance Company aims to be one of the most exciting ballet performance groups in London.
The Company is led by Maksym Shpachynskyi who trained at the prestigious Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts in Ukraine. Maks specialises in Jazz, Ballet and Russian dance and has toured around the world performing with top companies including Riverdance. His choreographic style is influenced by his broad range of expertise, precision and flexibility.
The Jazz Dance Company is for those who have completed Improvers Level Jazz classes at City Academy, the equivalent, or who have experience in jazz performance. To be accepted into the Jazz Dance Company we ask you to take an introductory class first.

In the class you’ll take part in a regular company rehearsal in a relaxed setting, giving you the perfect chance to meet the group in action. Following the class, we’ll email with an invitation to join the company or give suggestions for further training.

All City Academy tutors are experienced professionals from theatre, film/TV and performance industries. So whilst they're training you they may also be rehearsing for a West End show or working on a movie. We like that and we do believe it makes a difference in class.
