What our clients say…
“We, as a family, absolutely love Dance Dynamique Academy. Our daughter has been going since she was four and loves all the various classes. She is learning so many new skills beyond just the dance moves. Her confidence has come on so much and, through Miss Fiona and her assistants’ teaching, is now thriving in the groups. DDA has a unique family feel to it, which is evident each week, and especially strongly during holiday camps and dance shows, when the older students help to mentor the younger ones, who look up to them as much as they do the teachers. Miss Fiona, and her assistants, are passionate dance teachers, with a wonderful skill for passing on this love of all things dance to both children and adults alike.”
“My girls have been attending DDA dance classes for the past 4 years. They absolutely love DDA classes. Miss Fiona is fantastic with the children making classes fun and engaging without too much pressure. They have learnt so much not only about movement and posture but also how to work together in a group. DDA is not just a dance class, it’s a dance family!!”
“DDA is a fabulous dance school; super supportive, friendly and encouraging – it’s like a family extension! The seniors are brilliant role models for the little ones, it’s just a wonderful environment and Fiona is such an awesome teacher and role model herself. She welcomes everyone and helps the kids (and adults) to share in her passion, whether in lessons or when putting on the amazing shows – it’s infectious!”
Past Student Stories
“My daughters have been involved with DDA for two years now and they absolutely love it! Miss Fiona is so positive and enthusiastic, and they adore the older girls who support in their lessons. It was particularly lovely to see everyone working together and looking out for each other at the show, it’s really just like one big, happy family!”
