Hi me and my friend came across a vid on somebody's my space of the dance academy. Living in folkestone ( kent ) we has never heard of it from the vid it looks fucking amazing!!!!

Was just wondering why it is closed and is it likely to open again??

Hope so as it looks like it is worth a journey!

academy is a god send, i met so many bloody gud ppl from that place, it wud b a blessin if it re-opened but as it has been so long now i cant c it

I reckon they millenium complex should be made into a new dance academy

that place was better when it was the old Warehouse, better than that crapy cheese complex!

anyone remmber the sound factory whihc is now koolroos?

crapy cheese complex!

I resent that, I think you will find that the music on Friday nights was just as upfront as Dance Academy... Anyway, both clubs have gone now, time to look forward. There are still a lot of great nights playing fantastic music.

Never had the pleasure of going to the warehouse but have heard it was good

better than that crapy cheese complex!

i liked millenium, purely for the £10 all inc tbh, and i like kularoos too, it's good to go different places :D xx

it's good to go different places :D xx

variety is the spice of life *gotta stop with the fortune cookies lol*

Its closed, it's not fuckin right and i'm still sulking!

Why not keep a healthy balance and go outside of plymouth and experience other nights as well and you'll enjoy going out in Plymouth a lot more

i do hun, can't wait to get out the place!! lol!! roll on goodgreef n bionic :D whoopedee whoop whoop xx

Yep..... out of Plymouth alot in the comin months woop woop!! Roll on Bionic ('',)

Sorry didnt mean to offend perhaps i should have worded better, i went to the sat nights tbh but i didnt like the atompshere in there at all.

Def time to look forward, i doubt it will reopen the only thing to worry about is those involved in the case whihc my thoughts go out to.

Fair point about the fridge not being on the verge of falling down mate! Never seen the place so didnt realise it was that bad lol! Well if you lot decide to start a save the DA fund ill chip in.

you lot decide to start a save the DA fund ill chip in.

lets be pessimistic and say it'll never open again...and if it does, it'll be the best present since i got 1/2 a mile of bubble wrap for my birthday!!!

Sorry didnt mean to offend

No offence taken missy, hope all is well... prob c u round the uni :o)))

lol yeah prob you know where me office is....im the oen looking tired atm!

Hope course is going well :)

Nights out in Dance Academy will always be a part of alot of people's memories.

I just wish i'd known all of the fantastic people i've met in the past 6 months when Academy was open! The amount of times i must have walked past you lot and not known it.

I was usually off my fucking twat anyway and probably sat with some of you for hours chatting codshit in the small hours and never known it.

I wrote a massive reply on one of the petition threads about Dance Academy and my view on the politics behind the closure but it's just a drop in the ocean i'm afraid. I'm not expecting it to re-open but my god, if by some miracle it ever did, i don't know that it would be the same.

I'm happy going to Warehouse now and i'm finding that it's the company that make my night usually and believe me i've been to some fucking grotty clubs. There's a couple in Bristol where you daren't touch the walls and you wipe your feet on the way out but the friends around me make my night.

Totally agree with your comments, a club is bricks and mortar etc the clubbing scene is people! and imo its the peeps that make the night!

agree with both your comments there .. d.a was awesome and gave me some of the best years of my life so far :P if it wasnt for that place i would never have met some of the closest best friends i have now...and seen djs on my own doorstep !! i have a lot to thank it for ..but for me this is the 3rd time i have seen a club shut on me so i look forward to new clubs new memories and more fun !!
