   My daughter enjoys her weekly dance classes very much and has just completed the brilliant Summer Intensive course at LESTA. She had a wonderful time and came home each day excited to tell us what she had learnt and participated in. The amount of time and effort the teachers put in to their classes, exam prep and show prep is huge. We are very grateful to have found a training school for our daughter with such an ethos of inclusion, nurturing talent and promoting excellence. There are many opportunities provided for students to reach their potential and have lots of fun along the way.

   My daughter has danced with Leanne since she was two and a half and demanded ballet lessons. I'd had a bad experience of ballet classes as a child so was reluctant to let her go, but a friend recommended LESTA and we couldn't be happier. My daughter has thrived, and having started with one class is now dancing 5 times a week at age 11. The dance school is incredibly nurturing, encouraging each child to progress and thrive whilst always focusing on a love of dancing. The shows are a highlight but every week is a joy for her. The community and built by Leanne and her staff is one of inclusivity and encouragement. Worlds apart from my experience as a child and a wonderful environment for my daughter.

   My daughter has been taking Tap and Modern for around 3 years now and has improved greatly since being with Leanne’s school. From what just started as a bit of fun once a week when she was 6 to now something that she is still very much enthusiastic to continue progressing in. The show that Leanne and co work together hard to put together with the students was so professional and a fabulous way to enjoy seeing their skills on stage. Thanks to the team!

   My daughter has been attending LESTA for 5 years and she absolutely loves it! It gives her a sense of purpose and belonging. The shows that Miss Leanne puts on are just incredible. The dedication and hard work really shines through her teaching. The pupils are a little community. It's really lovely to see. I highly recommend LESTA!

   The Leanne Edwards School of Dance is utterly amazing and provides such an incredible and inspiring environment for dance students. The kindness and effort Leanne and her teachers put into everything they do is second to none and is something we will never forget. It has been so much more than dancing- everything from teaching self belief, discipline and how to be express yourself in a healthy, creative way. I couldn’t recommend it any higher.

   My daughter ( nearly 4) has been attending Leanne’s dance school for 6 months now and absolutely loves it! She looks forward to her lesson every Saturday and always comes home excited to tell us what she has learnt. We have really noticed an increase in our daughters confidence since starting her dancing lessons which has been lovely to see. Leanne is such a warm and welcoming teacher and my little girl took to her and the lovely helpers straight away. As parents we are always kept informed of any information via email and Leanne responds to any questions we have promptly. We 100% recommend Leanne Edwards school of dance and love being part of the dance family!

   We have been consistently impressed with the Leanne Edwards School. Our daughter has trialed and is now a regular at a number classes and enjoys every minute. The teachers are great with the children and patient with us adults with all our questions! It's been a difficult year through covid restrictions but the school has kept the children engaged and moving and have always put the childrens safety first as everyone is now back together. We highly recommend.

   My 4 year old has been attending the Melody Movement classes for the past year and has loved every second of it. It has been a great introduction to ballet and she can’t wait to move up to the ballet and tap classes soon. Miss Leanne is such a lovely teacher she introduces ballet in a fun and enjoyable way which has really kept my little one engaged through out. I would highly recommend to any budding ballet dancer!

   My daughter has been at Leanne Edwards School of Theatre Arts since the age of 3 and she is now 13. She started by just doing a ballet class and is now very competent in all of the dance genres. There are many opportunities to take from festivals to workshops, stage shows and lessons taught by well known dancers and stage performers. The atmosphere is always friendly and it has always felt like a second family. The teachers are very professional and give feedback when needed and also recommend other opportunities on an individual basis. We love it!!!
