Gill’s adult ballet class is great fun and great exercise too. Gill provides a really welcoming and comfortable atmosphere so that everyone can join in, no matter what their level of ballet experience. Highly recommended!

Theresa Malone

My daughter has been at Dance Pro Academy since before she started school (she’s now nearly 12) and it is still the thing she looks forward to most each week. She started with ballet and now also does tap, modern and musical theatre. Miss Gill and all the team are fantastic with the children, both in their teaching and their focus on their mental health when needed. I hope my daughter’s teenage years continue to be spent dancing!

Lisa, Parent

What do you like about doing your dancing? Pliés, jumping and tiptoes.

Heidi, Age 3

I was so impressed by the girls' dances! They truly were outstanding as was everyone else. My husband commented on the beautiful ballet outfits and he thought it was the best show yet! You are truly inspirational to the children and amazing at what you do!

Sarah Gaskin

It's amazing, the teachers are nice too. I do ballet, tap modern AND street dance and I think they are all really good. My favourite is street dance because I like the music and the type of dancing. I have many friends at DancePro Academy.

Willow, Age 7

I love dancing at DancePro because the teachers are lovely and the shows are really fun.

I cannot recommend enough this wonderful school of performing arts. Gill is an excellent teacher with a very rare gift of engaging with the little ones. My daughters although different in age love their respective dance classes. I have watched my little girls blossom in confidence and ability. I feel very lucky to have found this school and privileged that my girls are part of it. Cannot wait to see them progress further while having fun.

Gill and her colleagues provide a fantastic musical theatre experience for all children. My nearly 4 year old little boy absolutely loves her classes. He has so much fun and runs in each week! He reinacts the classes at home! It has also helped his overall development, socially and physically. Skills such as language, balance, social interaction and confidence have all improved through the classes. Most of all, he just has a wonderful time!

Baby ballet is a little gem of a class! My daughter loves seeing her friends and her lovely teacher Miss Lydia. She really has grown in confidence!

Jo, Parent

The teachers are really nice and fun, and I look forward to my class every week :-)

Josephine, Age 10

I think the school is a reflection of your character and ethos. Everyone should, of course, be proud of their personal achievement but the collective achievement is directly attributed to your ability, ethos, direction and general manner. You clearly have a true love of dancing, it’s clear you also have a lovely attitude to the children being little people with individual needs. You are also a true professional Gill that is quite obvious. I think you should give yourself a big pat on the back. Birds of a feather flock together and I think you are attracting the right crew. That’s great for all concerned. What a wonderful school you have created.

Jo Torres

It's so fun and we always make a friend everytime we go <3.

Evie V

My daughter and son take classes with DancePro Academy. They both love their classes and adore miss gill!! Her passion, talent and enthusiasm is catching! Couldn’t recommend more! Amazing teacher and amazing academy! Have told everyone to go along. Amazing and Gill should be really proud!

Amy Jackman

Thank you Miss Gill for making one little ballerina a very happy girl. She loves your classes and asks every week how long it is until Tuesday so she can get into her ballet and tap shoes again.

Lisa Hill

Miss Gill did a fantastic job on the DancePro Show. The show allowed all the children to and they had a great time practicing and then performing. My daughter does a lot of after school activities but she loves this one so much. Miss Gill is great with children and has a gift for knowing everyone’s name!!!!

Katie Coates-Maclean

I just wanted to say a huge thank you for this weekend. It was so much fun to be part of and **** loved it. She came home and said it was so much fun and loved being with all her friends. The performances were so impressive and the music choices were great. I can’t wait for next year and to see what the kids get up too. Thank you for all your help and patience.

Emily Baho

I have known Miss Gill for a long time now and I know that, for her, dance has always been more than a hobby. It has been a life-long passion. Now her performing days are over she is eager to pass on that passion to the next generation. The life skills and discipline helped her through the troublesome teens and into adulthood. I have seen some of her work and that of her students and am really impressed by their hard work and dedication. Yes, I am her mother and am, perhaps, a little biased. I could not be more proud of her and her pupils. Dance is for everyone and above all fun but the other lessons learned alongside it truly are life enhancing.

Gill's Mum

My 3 year old daughter loves the class and I’d happily recommend the class to anyone with a child who loves dance and music. Gill’s class is perfect balance of dance and fun. The class encourages the children to practice and improve their movement, coordination and to explore their imaginations.

Joanna Boyce

My daughter loves the Mini Musical Theatre classes and has really enjoyed learning some dance moves with all the other kids. Gill’s incredibly enthusiastic and passionate about dance and that comes through abundantly in her teaching.

Steve Ash

I was so impressed by the girls' dances! They truly were outstanding as was everyone else. My husband commented on the beautiful ballet outfits and he thought it was the best show yet! You are truly inspirational to the children and amazing at what you do!

Lauren Grace

That was an absolutely magical performance, I cried all the way through what a special lady you are to create such a wonderful show for these children. Thank you SO much, it really was so lovely.

Charlotte M

My daughter was just turned 7 and very shy when she started ballet with Miss Gill. Now, 18 months on, she's performed in a show on stage and passed her first ballet exam with a merit! Her confidence has grown and she loves the classes. Miss Gill really cares about her students and is brilliant with them, I highly recommend Dance Pro Academy.

Kirsty

My daughter attended a different company last year, and I can see what a difference DancePro Academy is. My daughter really likes going, I spot her putting her ballet shoes on and doing her dance positions at home on her own and has even learnt the names of the positions! The teacher has an excellent way with the kids, is friendly, very organised and efficient, and has always a show or workshop on the go, so it is a very proactive academy. I would definitely recommend.
