I joined an existing BCD class about 18 months ago, struggling to find myself again after a difficult relationship and breakup. I loved it instantly, so was devastated when the class changed nights so I could no longer attend. There was no way I could give it up, so becoming an instructor and bringing classes to my local area was the way forward for me! 

​

Before joining the classes I had had no formal dance training at all. I had already tried Zumba classes, yoga, and the gym, but didn’t find any of them anywhere near as enjoyable as BCD! 

​

I wasn’t sure I would be a very good teacher, but the training gave me the confidence to get out there, and I like to think my love for it shines through and makes up for it. In the first 6 months of running my own classes, I have really enjoyed watching the confidence of the ladies in my groups grow week on week. They dance with none of the self-consciousness they joined with and have blossomed into great groups of friends who lift each other spirits and support each other in all areas of life.

​

This goes for me too.. I have found 2 great new gangs of friends who have helped me on my confidence journey and have helped my self-esteem to grow. With them, I have found myself and my purpose again! 

​

I am looking forward to starting up another class next month and can’t wait to watch another group of ladies feel all the benefits BCD brings, as well as continuing and improving with the first classes. It would be fantastic if we could all get to the position of being ready to put on some little local displays or shows in our area, to push the boundaries of our comfort zone and showcase just how hard they work and how amazing they all are. I would also really love to increase my knowledge, so I can bring more fun and exciting elements to class for my ladies to enjoy. 

​

As I have stated, I am no professional dancer (you will catch me missing a step every now and again!) So, I would really like people to see my classes as more informal, and as a learning experience for us all, rather than feeling the pressure and that they will be judged for their ability, or lack of!  The main aim of my BCD classes is to try something new and to enjoy yourself! Moves don’t have to be perfectly executed, as long as they make you feel good whilst you are doing them! We as women are constantly aware of our ‘flaws’ … BCD has no place for that! We are all unique, glorious, beautiful creations and we deserve to feel as such!

My classes are £6 each pay as you go, no need to book – just turn up!
