Testimonials

 

Hi Rachel,

 

I just want to say thank you for a really brilliant course on Saturday 3rd at Guildford. I found it very inspiring and will definitely try to teach in schools.

 

I already teach to a youth group and have found it very rewarding so would like to expand, and you have given me the tools to do this.

 

Thanks Anne Olds

 

Hi Rachel,
Just wanted to say that I thought the course yesterday was amazing, you can really tell that it's a real passion for you.
I found it very inspirational and gives you confidence to get straight out there and help fight the childhood obesity crisis.

 

Thanks Aimee Dobson

Hi Rachel,

Following our group x for generation y course that I attended in Birmingham, i just have to tell you how well my first class just went!

Ive just started up a 6 week 'dance factory' course at the local council sports centre. 2 classes - kids aged 7 upwards in the 1st and adults in the 2nd. with a bit of marketing i have filled them in a weak time space which is all we had before it started. I'm doing a different them eevery week like you suggested - Salsa today, with Bollywood next wk and so on.

I had such fun and so did the kids. everything you said was true - they love armlines, they loved dance offs, they loved splitting into groups and learning together and then showing off, I had them performing 32 count routines in 3 lines and taking it in turns to come to the front but all doing it together. It was great! i really enjoyed myself and so did they.

The glass window had everyone passing by stopping to watch. The kids actually got the whole routine! I told them to practice for homework to show me again next wk. It was fab.
I so enjoyed myself, and now everyone else wants to come (but its full) and i expect b4 long,. thank you so much! i look forward to sending you my video in a few wks when ive got the consents back.


thank you rachel! Nicky Jameson Birmingham

 

 

Hi Rachel,
 
As always your classes are great and it's a shame that you don't live closer otherwise I'd be there all the time!
 
Saturday was very good, and you made it very easy to understand how to contact schools as well as teach the kids (even the difficult ones). I came away inspired and ready to teach teens.
 
Thanks for the sample letter, which will be very useful.
 
If I don't speak to you before, I hope you have a fantastic Christmas and a fab 2008.
 
Love Terri xxx

Hi Rachel

 I would just like to say Saturday was great and I would say the most fun I have had on any course that I have attended.

Already this week I have taught fitness cheer leading 3 times and also a step class which I hadn�t done before. I will definitely recommend your training sessions and workshops to other instructors

Truly excellent

Kind regards
