Our daughter has crippling anxiety. She currently cannot access school but has always used dance as an outlet for her anxiety. She has tried numerous dance schools but couldn’t cope with a dance class so we tried to find 1:1 lessons. Marina is not only a very capable teacher, with a beautiful studio, but she absolutely knows the balance between nurturing our daughter and pushing her - thank you so much, you’ll never know what a difference you are making to our daughter!

Marina School of Dance is a fabulous experience for both children and adults alike. My little girl delights in attending Marina’s ‘dance to your own tune’ and ‘acro tots’.

Dance to your own tune ‘family time’ is such a magical experience for both parents and child, as the parent you get to join in with your child. As a working parent this is such treasured time to see my child enjoying such a lovely activity on a Saturday morning.

Marina and her team are fantastic at what they do, always smiling, warm and kind and teaching to the highest standards.

I love attending Marina’s adult barre fit, it’s fun, sociable and great for the legs! Can’t recommend Marina School of Dance enough.

Marina has been a wonderful teacher and inspiration to kids for more than 10 years. We are particularly grateful that she kept going throughout the pandemic lockdowns and running either zoom or outdoor classes. She never stopped and managed to keep the kids busy and focused. My daughter loves her classes and has been attending for over 6 years. She also loves the new studio. Thank you Marina

My daughter was two years old when she started ballet classes. At the time she was incredibly shy and wouldn’t take part in the class without me by her side, she wouldn’t even take her coat off for classes, yet she was determined to continue! Marina was so patient with her, letting her go at her own pace until she was finally happy for me to leave her.

Twelve years later and my 14 year old daughter hasn’t stopped dancing! Marina continues to support and encourage whilst delivering high quality teaching. This has enabled my daughter to successfully progress through the RAD graded programme within a supportive, inclusive environment. Thanks to Marina she has grown into a confident dancer who loves to perform!

We first discovered Marina School of Dance when our eldest joined Dress up and Dance at just 18 months old. Now, 10 years on, all three of our daughters love dancing with Marina every week. Marina and her team offer a very professional, well organised, friendly, fun and caring environment. The range of classes offered are fantastic and the Studio is beautifully designed and well equipped. We were also very impressed with our recent visit to the well stocked and beautifully set up shop! Our daughters love dancing with Marina and we highly recommend Marina and her team.

We have been taking our eldest daughter to Marina School of Dance for nearly 6 years now. Starting when she was only 18 months as a very timid little girl. Marina and Tahna always helped settle Esmé and gently encouraged her to join in, now she’s 7 and a half and absolutely loves going to ballet and acro and taking part in her first dance exam.
Now all three of our daughters go to Marina School of dance and their confidence and love for dance has grown so much. Marina is a wonderful teacher who the children adore.

My daughter and I look forward to each lesson at Marina School of Dance. Marina has an engaging natural and professional approach teaching all children to express through dance, her enthusiasm is clear she loves sharing her extensive knowledge with all pupils of all ages and abilities. She has a beautiful way of giving corrections to her pupils that really help to improve with technique. Her passion for dance just oozes from her soul.
