Strawberry Hill Dance & Pilates Centre
Welcome to Strawberry Hill Dance Centre, run by Miss Sarah Taylor in our own purpose-built dance studio located in Newent (between Gloucester and Ross on Wye), Gloucestershire. Strawberry Hill Dance Centre places an emphasis on the enjoyment of dance, whether they're a budding Darcey Bussell or not.

Everyone is welcome, regardless of age, race and physical ability. As a member of the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) and International Dance Teachers Association (IDTA), we are able to enter pupils for examinations at preparatory to advanced level. We are also able to apply for scholarships through the RAD and IDTA.
Services
Must leave belongings in the caravan as the smaller studio is often required during class time. Must pay the fees to a member of staff so that it can be marked off (if payment has been forgotten, please let someone know so again it can be marked in the book). Please note that if there are any problems with fees, you may speak confidentially to Miss Sarah or Miss Monica.
The studio is available for parties (outside of class times). In addition to the room hire, if required Miss Sarah can arrange entertainment, games, teaching dances, etc. We have a disco ball and also offer disco parties for older children. Strawberry Hill Dance Centre offer a discount to children of the dance school, but welcome party requests from anyone.
The timetable is for guidance only and is subject to change at any time, please contact us to confirm class availability and times. Miss Sarah has many years of experience taking classes within the school & nursery School environment. She is also trained to provide Pilates & "Dance Fit" classes for all abilities including those with disabilities.
Street Dance is the generic umbrella term for dance styles which have evolved since kids took to the streets to hang out, listen to music and dance to express themselves and have fun. Over the years, this style of dancing has made its way into dance schools and studios where professionals have picked it up and polished it, fusing it with trained dance disciplines and generally put their creativity into it taking it to another level.
Most little girls (and some boys) like to act the part of the ballerina, dancing round the lounge. At Strawberry Hill we place an emphasis on the enjoyment of dance, regardless of age or physical ability. Ballet is a graceful dance style which is taught over a period of a number of years. Our ballet classes are taught by our experienced teachers using the RAD (Royal Academy of Dance) and ISTD (International Dance teachers Association) syllabus.

My two children have been dancing with Strawberry Hill for nearly three years. They love it. Everyone is encouraged to develop at their own speed and ability. Their recent show was amazing and everyone was encouraged to join in from the very young to the most experienced senior. My children love being able to bring their skills and confidence that they have got from dancing into their regular school and home life. I can highly recommend Strawberry Hill Dance.

My children 3 & 5yrs old just love going dancing and practicing what they've learnt at home. Parents get to sit in and watch the class or they can have a break and go get a drink in the waiting area. Very civilised. The teachers are lovely and very welcoming. Thank you all.
