My 2 girls do ballet with fancy footwork on Thursdays their teacher Miss Clare is lovely with the girls, Emily is in the 3+ class and is always very excited about going, at this age they are learning very basic steps and it is lovely to watch her growing confidence at the parents watching class which happens at the end of each term. Hannah is in the 8+ class and has been attending classes here since she was 3. It's amazing to this her progress as she gets older. From when they're 5 they can take exams and this year the older girls had the opportunity to be in a production of Coppelia at the New Wimbledon theatre, this was an amazing experience for them and fantastic to watch.
