About your GoTo Expert
MKCA offers competitive, recreational and special needs training sessions in cheerleading, dancing, ninja and tumbling, at our state-of-the-art facility in Milton Keynes.
MKCA is open to participants of all ages and abilities. We serve both competitive and recreational training purposes, and also offer special needs classes. Sessions are led by our outstanding team of certified coaches, who strive to deliver the best for all of our athletes.
We operate a schools programme, tumbling, flexibility and conditioning classes, as well as being available for hire at parties and events!
Cheerleading Classes
Athletes attend a weekly session, these are available from 30 minutes to 1 hour. The classes cover levels 1-2 stunting and tumbling and focus on safety through progression. Our recreational classes are suitable for beginners and for those wishing to develop their technique further. We give students the opportunity to gain badges for skills they achieve. Our athletes perform at our team showcase in January and July and at local events throughout the summer.
Tumbling Classes
This is a gymnastic based class which includes learning skills from handstands, cartwheels and walkovers all the way up to full twists. We teach progress through progressions. Athletes will condition skills by breaking each one down into drills which will help to build strength and confidence. We also offer a tumble grading programme so athletes can earn certificates and badges. http://mkca.co.uk/tumble-gradings/
Lyrical Classes
Lyrical dance is a dance style that embodies various aspects of ballet, jazz, acrobatics, and modern dance. Lyrical dance is strongly associated with clearly displayed emotional moods, fast-moving choreographic strategies, illustration of song lyrics, and, in group form, exact unison.
Street Dance
street dance is a dance style that was originally performed outside dance studios in any available open space such as streets, dance parties, block parties, parks, school yards, raves, and nightclubs. Street dances are often improvisational and social in nature, encouraging interaction and contact with spectators and other dancers. In class dancers will learn about authentic street dance styles like Locking, Popping, Breaking, Hip hop, House and Commercial.
Pom Dance
Pom dance is a high energy dance style using sharp and precise motions. Routines involve tight formations and spacing that enhance clever use of pom tricks. Dancers will learn twists, leaps, turns, jumps, motions and choreography. They will be taught the importance of flexibility and technique as well as using pom poms to enhance the performance.
Commercial Dance (Age 4 – 16)
Super fun and super sassy? Commercial dance is definitely for you! This class focuses on performance, rhythm, dynamics, musicality and all around fierceness. Students will learn moves to popular songs and learn to release their inner dancer!
Contemporary Dance (Age 10+)
Contemporary Dance focuses on using organic movements and unrestricted lines to express emotion. The class fuses elements of Jazz, Lyrical, Modern and Ballet to create powerful routines to move an audience.
Jazz (Age 4-16)
This fun class is designed to introduce students to jazz dance. Students will learn exciting skills to music, while improving their flexibility, sense of rhythm and overall coordination.
Partner Stunt (Age 10+)
Put your basing/flying skills to the test and join us each week in our partner stunting sessions! This 30 minute class will teach each attendee the fundamentals of stunting, including technique, timing and teamwork whilst building physical and mental strength.
TS Ninja
Inspired by Ninja Warrior and Karate Kid, our 1 hour TS Ninja recreational class incorporates elements of acrobatics, parkour and martial arts to bring out the inner ninja in our athletes. With the support of our trained coaches, each athlete has the chance to explore various adventure-based obstacle courses that will put their problem solving, teamwork and creative skills to the test.
Whilst learning key tumbling and Kung Fu techniques, athletes are also able to improve their physical fitness, muscular strength, flexibility and endurance. Whether you are a beginner or a master of the arts, join us every Wednesday evening and get ready to experience a ninja class like no other!
All-boy Tumble
Designed to build physical strength, flexibility, co-ordination and agility, our weekly all-boy tumble class will allow all athletes to develop their tumbling skills irrespective of ability – all whilst building lasting friendships!
Conditioning Classes
Unlike traditional, old-school workouts that feature short bursts of maximum intensity with longer periods of rest, INSANITY flips that formula upside-down. INSANITY uses MAX Interval Training, which replaces traditional moderate-intensity exercise with maximum-intensity exercise, and trades short intervals of intensity for short periods of rest.

“My daughter has been part of the MKCA family since she was 5yrs old. When she first joined she couldn’t even do a forward role over but she is now about to achieve her backwards hand spring. Thanks to the great coaches, Mikki and Paige for the time and encouragement they have given Ellie. We are super excited for our next season it is going to be amazing!”
“Everyone is so welcoming and friendly and most of all they look out for each other like one big family. My daughter has learnt so much in a short space of time thanks to the amazing coaches and the support of all that attend!”
“Jess has grown in confidence since joining MKCA first in a Rec group before moving onto competitive cheer. The coaches are amazing and it’s great to feel part of a Cheer family and watch your children grow.”
