WHAT THE PARENTS SAY
happy dancers | happy parents | happy teachers
 Thank you so much for such a warm welcome to dancing. I have never been a member of a dance club and so was a bit apprehensive about bringing my little girl along but everyone has been so friendly and kind. My daughter loves attending her ballet lessons and comes away with a huge smile on her face and desperate to show us her new moves. Thank you..."

Fox is simply amazing! Very professional dance company but with a lovely family feel. Heidi and the team get the very best out of the dancers and the progression I have seen in my daughter over the years has been such a joy to see. Team Fox all the way!

 My children have danced with Fox since the beginning and it is an amazing dance school - high quality and professional teaching, unique, creative choreography and the teachers are so friendly and caring. My girls love their dancing so much at Fox and the shows they perform in are incredible. It is an absolute pleasure to be part of the Fox family"

We just wanted to say thank you for an amazing show last night and for giving our daughter the opportunity to be part of it. 

Twelve months ago she was desperate to dance. She would dance alone and watch it on the internet or tv at any opportunity but her lack of confidence always got in the way of allowing her to join in. 

I took her to numerous classes but she either wouldn’t go in, or if she did she wouldn’t dance. When she came to you she joined in on that very first session and instantly fell in love you and the dance. 

Her confidence has grown hugely since then. She is achieving better at school because she is beginning to be able to speak up and find her voice. I think that comes from you, and the dance. She has also made firm friends  and has enjoyed being around all of the older girls - who have been extremely kind and nurturing.

After the show last night she was relaxed and chatty without any sign of the anxiety which often cripples her. I think it would be fair to say she had a whale of a time last night. She is now adamant that she will become a professional dancer.

Thank you for everything you have given to her and for producing such a polished, visually interesting and enjoyable show.
