ABOUT THE SCHOOL
The Susan Handy School of Dancing has been established since 1974 and is a school for children and adults from the age of 2½ upwards. Children can train in ballet, modern jazz and tap and we offer music and movement classes for the younger children. Adult classes in all of the above are also available at various levels including beginner.

Susan Handy has been dancing since she was 2½ and danced professionally at the age of 16. She has been teaching for over 30 years and has a vast experience which she passes onto her pupils encouraging them to all achieve their aims.

Most children want to dance for pleasure although we encourage pupils to participate in examinations and some will want to make a career out of dancing. Whatever their aim it is important that they should have fun. Dancing also provides other benefits, importantly exercise but also heightened posture and co-ordination skills and dancing can help increase confidence and social skills and exercise a child’s imagination.

Pupils will be taught in a fun and stimulating atmosphere whilst maintaining the discipline necessary to achieve the highest standards possible for the school. This especially applies to basic courtesies such as punctuality.
