Erna and Lynsey took over Spotlight in February 2017 from Stefanie McFeat who has been running the dance school very successfully since 2002 offering classes in various locations across Hemel Hempstead.
Spotlight provides professionally run classes in a fun, friendly and welcoming environment from ages 3 to adult whilst sharing the love and enjoyment of dance amongst friends. We are proud of our high teaching standards, our excellent examination results and our aim is to fulfil every student’s full potential.
Our classes give students the chance to build confidence, be creative and to develop technique and dancing skills. All our teachers are dedicated in bringing out the best in your child and are passionate about inspiring Spotlight pupils.
Dance is a great for confidence and boosting self esteem in children. It improves strength, flexibilty and co-ordination. It also makes students aware of correct posture and encourages positive attitudes towards a healthly lifestyle from a young age.
Students are encouraged to be creative, have fun and explore movement in our classes in a safe and inspiring atmosphere and great friendships are formed at the Spotlight School of Dance
Our team of experienced teachers will nurture the development of each individual student according to their needs. We offer numerous opportunities for students to showcase their progression through productions and showcases throughout the year which gives each student an opportunity to participate and develop confidence and creativity.
We also have three street dance troupes for which pupils can audition . They are taught by West End professional choreographers and are entered in competitions all over the UK.
We also offer street dance classes for adults of any age who are looking for a fun way to exercise in a friendly and relaxed atmosphere with the added benefit of keeping fit. No previous dance experience is necessary, just the willingness to give it a go. Many different street dance styles will be covered and Rachael will clearly explain all steps to prevent injury.
