In drama we will be working on improvisation, devising, physical theatre and script work. In dance we will be working on technique, co – ordination, fitness and overall performance.
I have lots of experience working with small children starting from ages 2-3 at dance schools and theatre schools. my lessons are fun, energy driven lessons that encourage children to dance, sing and act in bite size chunks. Under the close supervision of myself your little ones are encouraged to be individual and creative, expressing themselves in a supportive atmosphere. I work on social skills and confidence, great skills that help with the transition to primary school.
“I really enjoy teaching dance and drama. I feel that I have the ability to encourage each child to achieve their potential and achieve their very best in performing arts. I design stimulating, imaginative lessons and bring motivation, fun and energy to all my classes. I strive to develop performance technique, imagination and confidence in each individual.”
