This allows her to get to know and invest in every single student that comes into her classes and pass these invaluable skills and knowledge onto them.
Our aim is to teach our dancers about the moves, culture and history of these rich styles in our fun, fresh and exciting classes for all ages and abilities. Cultivating brilliant and passionate dancers who genuinely understand the styles.
