What people are saying...
“What you do for young people is so important at a crucial stage in their lives - encouraging them to think of their bodies in a positive, confident way; helping them to be expressive and strong and unafraid. It's not to be underestimated, and you deserve to feel proud of the effect you have on them" -Rebecca Front (parent)
"I've learned that dance can bring people together and is a way to make new friends" -Chloe (student)
'Sarah encourages me in a relaxed atmosphere to stretch in places that haven’t moved in a long time. Sarah shows things that are suitable to my ability, I don’t feel inadequate or under pressure to perform. My posture and gait has really improved with a great feeling of achievement' -Jill (adult student)
"The students you work with come away with a skillset and varied choreographies. These experiences prepare young dancers for this most rigorous of professions” -Sue (teacher)
