If you haven't been to a session yet and are wondering what it's all about, why not come to our 'taster' session AT Riverside on Thursday 4th June 10am-11am.

Emma is one of our practitioners and has a dance background. She is fully qualified and runs the session for those that are on their feet, finding their feet and confident on their feet 🦶
