I have been attending Ripley Academy of Dance...

I have been attending Ripley Academy of Dance for the past 16 years and never looked back, I have always done a variety of classes with the intention of becoming a teacher. From the help and support from all of the teachers I have already managed to gain two teaching qualifications whilst I am now working on my third with the Royal Academy of Dance. All of the staff here are so caring whilst very determined to help every dancer learn and achieve their dreams weather that be like mine, a teacher, or anything else in the dance industry. At Ripley Academy I haven’t just learnt how to dance it has taught me a whole range of things such as discipline, to be resilient, improved confidence. I have also made some amazing friends all due to the friendly atmosphere that this school has.
