Updates at North East Dance

We have received some lovely feedback about one of our new instructors Emily Nicholson. Emily has just joined our team and can teach a wide range of dance and fitness styles. Emily taught at the 'Golden Games' on Thursday 23rd January which was an event provided by Newcastle Eagles and we were informed- 'A few participants mentioned how adaptable Emily was with those who arrived with dementia and were frailer than others. They were very impressed with how she adapted the session to ensure everybody was involved.' Great work Emily! Welcome to the team!!

We have lots of new courses starting this months for learners who are 19 years plus! Our ‘Let’s All Boogie’ course is for adults with their toddlers for a dance and movement class. Each week the course covers a new fun topic and there is also lots of popular nursery rhymes for both adults and toddlers to dance too. If you are interested in attending a course or you work for a centre that would like to hold a course please contact clare@northeastdance.com.

We always love receiving amazing feedback from schools about our fabulous team. Here is what Byker Primary in Newcastle had to say about Jake. "Jake is unbelievable!
