Last week we were very lucky to have a visit from Strictly professional Katya Jones, who came to do a workshop with our young dancers. She put them through their paces working hard with the theme of ‘armography’ and performance. The dancers were truly inspired, and it has really shone through in their dancing already! Katya took lots of time at the end to sign autographs, books and take lots of photos and selfies!

As a result, we’ve decided to take a school trip to Neil and Katya’s live Show ‘Somnium’ on Saturday 22nd June at 2pm at the Saddlers Well’s theatre in London! Tickets will be available to book through Toni-Marie soon
