Floor plans for the dance school include three studios across two floors, alongside kitchen and toilet facilities.
If approved, soundproofing will be put in place to allow music to be played during lessons.
Middleton School of Dance is run by qualified dance teacher Ami Middleton and is currently based at Hedley Community Hall in the town.

A decision on the dance school plan is expected from South Tyneside Council this year.
