Location - Studio 3, Lower Close Studios

All sessions are in the attractive and spacious Studio 3, Lower Close Studios (formally Dartington Space), Dartington Hall Estate, TQ9 6EN, with its great acoustics (it’s a professional sound studio).
Directions are given further down this page.
Accessible tiered prices - slight increase for 2025
Prices vary for each tier, and also depend on whether you book a series or pay on the door. These are designed to feel manageable for you:
-
Standard: "Money is OK or fairly comfortable".
-
Supporter: "I feel relaxed or abundant with money, and want to help the community".
-
Supported: "I'd really appreciate some help, money is tight".
I don't want cost to be a barrier to attending, so please message me, if none of the tiers feel affordable. There's also a free helper place available.
Prices - series in advance (bank transfer)
Many of us deeply love Biodanza, love getting together and connecting, and so sign up for each series. For some this creates a strong feeling of being a part of this amazing community.
This does give a lower price for you, if you attend every time, but more than that it makes the sessions sustainable. Next series is Jan-Easter.
These are just for Saturdays, with a discount on the door price on Thursday for series ticket holders.
- Standard: £60.
- Supporter: £70 upwards.
- Supported: £50.
Bank details: 08-92-86 17393124 (G Green), with your name as the reference, to ease admin.
Prices - on the door (cash or card) - £7 first time
Prices are again tiered, plus the first time offer for trying out our class and friendly community:
- First time: £7.
- Standard: £14.
- Supporter: £16-20.
- Supported: £11. For series holders on Thu too.
Cancellations of advance bookings
Sorry, no refunds or credits unless I have to cancel.
Car parking - use the main Estate car park
The main car park is just below the Green Table Café, 5 minutes walk to our studio. Charges apply every day 9am-6pm (so not for the evening class) - £3.50 for 3 hours (as of Jan 2025).
Directions to Studio 3 - from the main car park
Start at the main car park entrance. Head downhill on the left side for a few minutes until you get to the second right, with gates on it (see below) and a black direction sign saying Lower Close Studios.

Go up this road, take the steps that are soon on your right (visible in the above picture). There should be Biodanza direction signs to help.
From above the steps, Studio 3 is straight ahead once you're through the doors in the next picture.

If you end up in reception, go right until you come to metal lift doors, turn right again, through double doors, then left to the studio (opposite studio 1).
Please don't confuse Studio 3 (near the gardens) with Studio 30/33 (over at the Hex, Aller Park - now closed to dance classes).
Directions - walking or cycling from Totnes
In this case, you'll get to the turning shown above before the main car park. There's several places you can lock up a bike, just outside the building.

Public transport
Bus 165, from Totnes to Dartington Hall (also to Dartington village, Staverton and Broadhempston), runs at least every 2 hours, including on Saturdays.
