  In 1958, the school moved from Manchester to Addlestone in Surrey, and then in 1975 to New Cross in London, where it was renamed the Laban Centre for Movement and Dance. In 1997, it was renamed the Laban Centre London. In 2002, the centre moved to newly built premises in Deptford and was renamed Laban.
