Lesley Taylor School of Dance

Its fantastic to be back to normal dance classes. Please continue to sanitise your hands as you enter the building and you cannot attend if you have any Covid-19 symptoms, have been asked to isolate or are waiting for PCR test results. I'm really looking forward to being able to do a show again in the summer.

Thank you!

All Little Dancers

I have taught preschool dance for many years for dance schools, leisure centres and in community centres. These classes are a really fun introduction to dance and children can attend from 18 months old. I teach tap, ballet and creative dance as the children get more able and include lots of imaginative ideas, props and time for the children to dance in their own way to music they recognise and love. Parents are welcome to stay for all my preschool classes – only 1 parent/carer per child. There is no set uniform for this age so any clothes and shoes that the children can safely run around in are fine for them to wear. Free trial classes are available and fees are payable by the half term in advance.

School Age Children

All these classes are a mix of dance styles meaning children can learn lots of different types of dance in the same class so children can learn lots even though they only come once a week. The classes start with tap and ballet when the children are 4 and then I add in modern stage, musical theatre, singing, gymnastic dance, freestyle/street and contemporary depending on the age and interest of the group. Lots of students have joined me in my preschool classes and continued to attend until going to university and beyond. A few have gone on to dance professionally. I make the classes as much fun as I can and always aim to make them stress free and affordable for parents. I have collection of second hand dance shoes that can be borrowed and I provide all costumes for my shows for a small hire fee. Free trial classes are available for new customers. Please contact me to book.

Adult Classes

I run a variety of fitness classes for adults including Pilates, aerobics, Barre fitness and body toning. In the past I’ve taught Salsa aerobics, step, adult tap and ballet and many other types of fitness classes in leisure centres, adult education colleges, community venues and health clubs. I currently teach for Cheadle Hulme Fitness which is an amazing community club, Aquinas College and Life Leisure. For more information about Cheadle Hulme Fitness please visit their website www.cheadlehulmefitness.org.uk Please contact the venue/club directly to book.
