Both my daughters have been attending Roos Academy since the age of 3 (they’re now 7 and 5). They both absolutely love their ballet classes (even during lockdown, over Zoom!) and have now also picked up tap and modern. My eldest will never forget her first show on stage - her proudest moment - and my youngest can’t wait for her turn. Fantastic teachers - thoroughly recommend.

Roos Academy is a friendly and professional dancing academy. It combines structured lessons where the children can gain ISTD grades and wonderful fun doing there wonderful shows at Catford Theatre.
My daughter has danced with Helen for 6 years and it has been integral for her confidence and she has made fantastic friends. She loves it.
In this covid climate Helen has made sure the children have not been forgotten and is providing great online lessons which works really well for my daughter.
I would fully recommend Roos, Helen Roos is great.

My daughter has been attending classes here for the past 5 years and has really enjoyed the range of dance styles on offer. She has grown in so many ways, particularly her ability to perform with confidence. Due to the current situation, classes have been online which we have welcomed and valued hugely at this time. It’s lovely for the girls… (and boys!) to continue dancing and have an opportunity to be part of a group again. I’d highly recommend the online classes - it’s been a wonderful bit of normality in this strange and unsettling time. Try it!

If you want your children’s to develop their passion, continue to learn dance and grow into confident performers then this is defo the place for you- be surrounded with like minded dance loving people at Roos Academy, lovely Miss Helen is not only welcoming and extremely knowledgeable but she invests herself in your children and brings out the very best in them, as a beautiful dancer and as a great Roos family member.

My daughter has been training at the Roos Academy since she was three years old, doing ISTD exams. Amelia attends all genres of classes. After being shy as a child with the support of Helen Roos Amelia has become a more confident, well grounded young lady. Helen has supported her to reach her goals and continues to do so and raised her self… esteem. Amelia has been part of the Festival team for 7 years and as a groups they have achieved amazing accolades. Amelia has made lifelong friends through dance. Amelia has learnt commitment and integrity and achieved so much. Amelia has been in many

My two daughters have been dancing with Helen since they were 6, they love their classes and now dance 4 days a week. It has been amazing for their confidence not to mention the fitness and flexibility that comes with Ballet. They have sailed through exams thanks to the hard work and dedication of Helen who teaches with so much warmth and love and… generosity for the children. The girls also compete in Regional festivals and have gained so much confidence performing in groups that they now have enough courage to get on stage alone and performed solos. I highly recommend Roos academy to anyone

My daughter has been dancing with Roos Academy for almost 9 years and I can’t rate the school highly enough. The quality of teaching is outstanding, the principal and staff are hugely passionate about each child’s development and success. My daughter loves every aspect of dancing at Roos - from performing in festivals and shows, to the amazing… friends she (and I !) have made. My daughter has been very successful as a direct result of attending Roos Academy, including winning medals and trophies in regional festivals and being selected to perform in professional pantomimes.
