Frequently asked questions – online classes FAQs
Welcome to our online classes. At the start of the pandemic, we transferred many of our classes online, and even though we’ve come through, we found our students loved training this way, so we decided to keep our online timetable. We also created the brand new LDA(Play) our library of on-demand pre-recorded classes.
We now offer a range of classes, both on-demand and livestreamed studio classes, so if you can’t make it into the studio for any reason, there are classes you can join in so you can continue your training.
Book livestreamed classes through our timetable or app (Android or iPhone). You sign up through our timetable or app as normal, you’ll be sent an email confirmation, and another email no later than 15 minutes before the start of the class with your Zoom link!
If you prefer a more flexible solution we offer curated collections of on-demand classes online through LDA(PlayLists). You can access all the classes 24/7 on any device. Learn more and sign up to LDA (Play)

If you haven’t received it no later than 10 minutes before your class, call reception on 020 3490 1018, or email bookings@londondanceacademy.co.uk and we’ll help!
How do I join the online zoom classes?
You will receive an email 15 minutes before the start of your class with a Zoom link. Click on this link and you’ll be entered into the meeting. The teacher will join and the class will start.
When you enter the online studio, you will be on mute. Please keep yourself on mute during the class so everyone can hear the teacher. If you have a question, of course you can unmute yourself and ask the teacher. Or email bookings@londondanceacademy.co.uk with any technical issues or feedback.
What happens during the online Zoom class?
When the class starts, you will be on mute. If you have any questions during the class you can unmute yourself to ask the teacher. If you have a really bad internet connection, you may need to log out and log in again to the class if your connection is interrupted. But don’t worry, you’ll be straight back in the class.
During the class the teacher will show you what to do, and help you as in any normal class. Please keep your video on so the teacher can see you to help!
If you’re in a livestreamed studio class, the teacher will not have time to interact with you, so please bear this in mind when booking.
