WELCOME!

I offer a range of adult dance classes across West Sussex at varied levels of intensity and incorporating different styles from week to week, from Bollywood to Waltz and almost everything in between. No partners are necessary because you learn in lines (even for styles that are traditionally partner dances).


These classes are for anyone who wants to dance, whatever your age or ability. With all of my classes you can work at a level that's comfortable for you. What you get out of each class depends on what you put in! However, I'm also mindful we have to look after our bodies, so I'll offer you alternative moves and adapt routines if needed to make sure you can manage.


My ethos has always been about providing fun friendly classes in a relaxed atmosphere. So, why not come and join me and have some fun?

DANCE CLASS

The focus of this class is on learning how to dance with just one routine/style being taught each week. A whole host of different styles will be covered over the course of the weeks/months so you'll get lots of variety. Some weeks will be more energetic than others, but generally it's good exercise for the brain and the body without it being too intensive.

DANCE FIT

This class is aimed at improving fitness but not at too high an intensity. It's a bit like interval training, where you'll have bouts of lower intensity and higher intensity dancing, because I'll include slow, moderate and fast tempo music. You'll get the same variety of styles as with the Dance Class. I run through some steps before we dance each routine when necessary, so it allows you to pace yourself. It's a good workout and you'll still work the brain when trying to remember each routine.

ABOUT ME

The Strictly Dance classes began because I wanted to share my love of dancing - you're never too old to enjoy it. I wanted to offer more variety than just one style, or only ballroom and latin. There seemed to be limited options available, especially dancing without a partner. I was sure it would be as much fun learning lots of different styles and not about getting really good at just one style. The element of fun has always been very important to me.

BENEFITS OF DANCING

I've long been advocating the fact that dancing is a great form of exercise for the body and the brain! The research supports this fact. Both BBC documentaries 'How To Stay Young' and 'The Truth About Getting Fit' stated how beneficial dancing is for you. I've also recently read a fabulous book called 'The Dance Cure' by Dr Peter Lovatt. He's a former professional dancer turned psychologist who has spent two decades studying why we dance and what it does for us.
