the dance zone
Berkshire,
Becky Hi, I’m Becky, the Principal here at The Dance Zone. I began dancing at
the age of 4, learning Freestyle, Ballroom and Latin American. At the age of 14
I became a Student Teacher and fell in love with teaching. I enjoy studying the
theory side of dance and went on to take the Associate Teacher qualification in
both Ballroom and Latin American with the IDTA; and Ballroom with the ISTD. I
now have the pleasure of passing this knowledge on to any of our student
teachers who wish to train to become qualified dance teachers and fulfil their
own dance dreams. Quite some time ago, I discovered a love of authentic Street
dance and still enjoy attending classes in this discipline. Over the years I
have achieved qualifications to teach Zumba, Zumba Toning and Mash It Up
Fitness, all great and fun exercise programs. I have had the pleasure of
partnering students at competitions in the Blackpool Tower Ballroom, something I
will never forget. I do not have a favourite style, I just love to dance; even
my holiday every year is at a dance convention! Yes, dance is my passion, but
it’s more than that, it’s who I am. Amy Amy Hi, I’m Amy, and I’ve been dancing
at The Dance Zone since it opened in 2011 but have been dancing for 13 years. I
have been a student teacher since 2017, I also take lessons in Tap dancing
elsewhere. I have loved growing up and spending time with the other amazing
student teachers and getting to know all the kids. Going to dance just provides
me with a good opportunity to have fun and learn something new at the same time.
Beth Beth Hi, I’m Beth, and I have been dancing since I was 3 years old. I
started off doing ballet then moved to The Dance Zone at the age of 6. Dance was
always something that I have loved so it’s amazing I have been able to continue
dancing my whole life. I competed in several competition as part of a Street
dance crew. I have taught dance since I was 12, I love being able to share my
passion with the kids and being able to teach and dance with them. It’s
rewarding to see the kids perform knowing that you helped to lead and encourage
them. My favourite style of dance is street as it’s fun and allows for you to
add your own style to routines. I have grown up with The Dance Zone and had the
opportunity to be taught by and dance with amazing people and have amazing
memories.
