Fitness Videos
Hi everyone,
We hope you are well and not going too stir crazy at home during this period of social isolation!! We took the opportunity once we sensed that 'lockdown' was approaching to film a few video clips of our fitness classes to help keep you going until we are safely able to get back in the studio. Please bear with us, teaching to an empty room with a camera staring you in the face is a lot more intimidating than a room full of people, strangely enough!!
Before you start, please make sure you create a suitable space to dance in, clear everything out of the way and make sure you are wearing appropriate clothing and footwear, drink plenty of fluids and most of all don't forget to breathe!!
There are several videos to choose from, but please make sure you complete the cool down video when you have finished!!
Enjoy! x
35 minutes
Zumba
90's Dancercise
25 minutes
Toning
5 minutes
Cool Down
5 minutes
DISCLAIMER - All exercise is undertaken at your own risk. Please make sure you are fit, able and have a suitable space to work with.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Where do we go on the day:
Please make note of the notice on the front door to see where the Waiting Room for your test will be. You will either be asked to wait in Studio 1 (entering via the front door) or Studio 3 (entering via the side door on Johnson Street South). Please wait in the waiting room until you are called. You should not enter the examination room without permission.
2. How early should we arrive:
Please only arrive no more than 10 minutes early. If you arrive very early, the waiting room will become very full and more difficult to manage.
3. I am poorly on the day of the test, what should I do:
Please call us on 01942 882718 as soon as possible so that we can request that the examiner carry your test forward to the next examination session. If you do not let us know in advance of your test time, your test will not be carried forward and your examination fee will be lost.
4. Can we watch our children dance:
Medal Tests - If they are happy for you to watch, then you are welcome in the examination room. You may film your own child only, as long as no one else in the room at the time objects. You must not film the examiner and the films should not be put on Social Media.
Grade Examinations - these tests are conducted in a closed room situation, so no spectators are allowed.
We must insist on quiet from all spectators with the exception of clapping at the conclusion of the dance being performed. You must remain seated at all times during the test, even if your child isn't dancing. Phones MUST be on silent and remain unanswered.
5. Where do we sit in the examination room:
Please sit on the far side of the room to the examiner, or on the stage. Anyone wanting to film their child, must do so from the far right corner. Please ask if you are unsure where that is.
If you have any further questions, please speak to your teacher on class.
Good luck everyone!!
