Great friendships can be made at this barre.................
I began teaching ballet classes for adults through Adult Education with county councils in both Loughborough and Northampton over 15 years ago and I firmly believe that it's never too late to learn a new skill - and even highly technical classical ballet is no exception!
My aim is to teach non-competitive, perfectly planned classes to suit individual needs in a relaxed, fun and friendly atmosphere. Exercises can be easily adapted for difficulty and technical explanations are always available and questions welcomed. Ballet is great for enhancing good posture, tone, co-ordination and a perfect way to keep yourself fit and in shape.

A success of their own - my classes in Northamptonshire became very popular and successful and as a result of their dedication and commitment a few adult pupils (who began classes as complete beginners) entered for a recognised examination and gained merit & distinctions after just two years of training - there's absolutely no pressure but the opportunity is there if you'd like it!
Tea parties, performances, regular theatre trips and meals out are also arranged when possible.

My RAD Silver Swans classes began in September 2017 & have very quickly become friendly, fun weekly gatherings! I have been absolutely thrilled by the level of interest & response - they have been fully embraced by both complete beginners & highly trained participants.
Our classes are proving to be hugely beneficial physically, mentally & socially - regular classes can improve co-ordination, balance, posture & memory. Dancing to a wide variety of wonderful music helps develop musicality, inspires & ignites memories. Here brand new friendships are being forged and even old dance class friends reunited!
If you're interested in joining a class but feel a bit unsure (I understand that it can be daunting) - please do get in touch & you're also very welcome to watch a class before you decide whether it's for you.
