"Hello my name is Jan. Are you someone like me who just loves to dance and longs to attend classes without feeling embarrassed and uncomfortable because of your age? Be like me I am 74 years old and have been attending Miss Samantha’s dance classes for nearly 3 years, learning RAD Ballet and Pointe Work classes at the Barre, along with Tap and Pilates. The surroundings are amazing, her studios are lovely, even entering the foyer you just feel the part with all you may need available to purchase if necessary. Above all Miss Samantha is an amazing teacher. She is kind, patient and thorough with her teaching, she takes time with every step and routine, helping to explain balance and co-ordination which provides an interesting and rewarding experience.So why not come along and see for yourself. Join us for that really lovely experience, enabling you to live an active life becoming healthy, fitter and a longer life."

Hope to see you soon.

"I am a 63 year old Ballet and Pointe student of six years at SBSD. Miss Samantha has the ability to teach all ages due to her patience, skills and professional tuition. As well as health benefits and social interaction any age will benefit from the skills and fun achieved in this friendly environment whether it be a single lesson or a life ambition."
