This is an excellent dancing school, with the teaching pitched at the individual’s ability level, so you never feel left behind, and the teachers — fortunately — have endless patience. This is the school to join if you really want to learn to dance.

Dancing has enabled us to increase the exercise we do and enlarge our social circle whilst learning new skills.
The teaching is encouraging and relaxed with an informal atmosphere. The teachers will always show how to do the steps before we try the routines. There is focus on the basics when you first start and repetition of the dances is encouraged until individuals are happy. The teachers are always willing to help out on a one to one basis when needed. There is opportunity to move up into the next class but there is no pressure to do so.

We have been to many of the dance weekends and some of the Saturday evening social dances. As a result, we have made a number of acquaintances and also some really good friends. The dance weekends are great fun giving you an opportunity to dress up, make new friends and learn new dances.

As a couple, we had individual hobbies but didn’t really do anything together until we saw an advert for Elaine’s School of Dancing and decided to enrol. We’ve never looked back, we look forward to our Monday nights together at class, it’s a great activity to share and a fantastic form of exercise.  Elaine is an excellent teacher and with her partner John they make it easy to learn dance moves. The unexpected additional benefit we as a couple have found is the increase in our social life and friendship group, from meeting with other couples to have a meal to attending the superb weekends that Elaine organises – we realise we have gained so much since joining Elaine.  Jenny and Andrew

I’ve always wanted to learn how to dance & ‘eventually’ my husband said he’d give it a try for a month…. well that was two & a half years ago! Since then we’ve gone from the complete beginner’s class to the intermediate class, we’ve  danced on Weston Super Pier, enjoyed a lovely New Year Dance in Malvern & also two dancing weekends in Bournemouth & Torquay! We even dipped our dancing shoes at Blackpool Tower Ballroom without our dancing family with us, very brave! Really though, you can do/join in as little or as much as you like! You will defiantly have fun, make friends & enjoy learning to dance with the ever patient Elaine & Jon! Thank you guys!
