Overall, private studios represent the main amenity for dance classes and most of the youth under the age of 11 practice ballet whilst the teenagers from 11 to 16 years old prefer modern dance. Looking in closer detail at the chart, we can notice that private studios head the locations of dance classes accounting for 48%. In addition, school halls come in the second position, representing 24%. Community halls and other schools follow with a rate of 18%. Finally, a small percentage of 10% is attributed to college-based studios. The bar graph brings more pieces of information concerning the style of dancing practised regarding the age.

Modern style of dancing is, on the contrary, practised by approximately 500 students from the age of 11 to 16 years old. Furthermore, the tap dance courses are almost equally followed by the two groups.
