The pie chart and bar graph illustrate information about the location of dance classes and the number of students taking different types of dance classes by age group.
Overall, nearly half of the dance classes are held in private studios, while the rest take place in school halls, community halls, or college-based studios. In terms of dance styles, ballet is most popular among children under 11, whereas modern dance is preferred by the 11-16 age group.
To begin with, private studios account for the highest proportion of dance class locations at 48%, followed by school halls (after-school) at 24%. Community halls and other venues make up 18%, while only 10% of classes are held in college-based studios.
Looking at the types of dance classes, ballet is the most common among children under 11, with just under 600 students enrolled. In comparison, the number of older students (aged 11-16) taking ballet is slightly lower, at around 400. For tap dance, both age groups show similar interest, with under 11s slightly exceeding 400 and 11-16s a bit under this number. Modern dance is most popular among the 11-16 group, attracting around 600 students, whereas fewer than 400 students under 11 take this class.
In summary, private studios are the main venue for dance classes, and ballet and modern dance are the most favored styles, depending on the age group.
