Are you the owner of Studio E Oakham?
Studio E Oakham is a vibrant dance school, dance company, dance shop, and events venue located in Oakham, New Zealand. Founded by Emily, a passionate dancer and business owner, Studio E aims to provide a space for the diverse and creative community of Oakham to express themselves, exercise, and be entertained.
The journey of Studio E began on May 1st, 2019, a bittersweet day for Emily as she lost a close family member. However, this event also became a driving force for her to create something truly special. In just a few months, the space has been transformed into a place to be proud of, with an expanded studio, levelled floor, refurbished reception area, water fountain, and redecorated changing rooms. The dedication of Emily's husband, dance academy, and friends has been instrumental in bringing Studio E to life.
Studio E offers a variety of classes and events that cater to different interests and age groups. The Emily Redding Dance Academy, a part of Studio E, offers classes such as ERDA (Emily Redding Dance Academy) on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, Ladies Kickboxing on Wednesdays, Little Voices on Wednesdays, Fitsteps on Thursdays, Pilates on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, Choi Kwang Do on Saturdays, and Grow To Glow Fitness on Mondays.
