What we believe as Dancers Creative Performing Artists Entertainers or Musicians & Dance Teachers

Learning to DANCE is an uplifting joyful activity that demands endless effort, loads of energy, dedication, perseverance concentration through challenges bringing happiness and igniting a passion or a burning fire from within.

Mesmerising Fiery Dancing requires an ability to focus, absolute commitment with a positive attitude to learn new skills over time with years of dedication to the Artform

Feel your dance your way work on your individual personal style for your OWN Shape Size & Physical attributes watch & learn from everybody but when you dance you bring YOU, your personality,

your individuality your life stories.

It is not just steps that you learn, it is your story,

your life how you interpret the structured Steps & intrincate captivating rhythms and make it your own without losing YOU!
