Adult Classes

“Anne – Marie has trained me since 2009, starting as just a hobby soon fell into a real passion. She has trained me in Jazz, Lyrical, Contemporary and Tap. Competing in many solos over the years and receiving many awards, in 2017 I completed my Glenn Wood Tap exam Level 10 and received a Gold Award and Mark of 98%. Training over the next 12 months I then returned to complete my Level 11 exam again receiving a Gold Award and Mark of 98%. Without the training and knowledge Anne – Marie has not only taught but now passed on my marks, passion and love for dance would never have been possible without her amazing guidance.”

“Shani and Adam were married at Chateau Elan in the Hunter Valley. Shani is an ex-dancer and wanted something to reflect what she has training in for most of her childhood. To do this, Adam was onboard to learn a choreographed Bridal Dance to Cant Help Falling in Love by Hayley Reinhart – a Cover Version. In just 6 x 1 Hour lessons they worked on a Bridal Waltz which was partly traditional but with a little flare for Shani. Adam lead the way and grained more confidence half way through the course, then nothing could stop him! Loved your feedback when sending these photos to us, “We got so many compliments about our dance!” We new you could pull it off especially to top it off when Adam had a chance to Strutt his stuff at the end! We also appreciate your Testimonial on Easy Weddings too, this is what Shani and Adam had to say about there experience: “Anne marie was fantastic! I had danced for most of my life but my partner hadn’t and she made it so easy for both of us. I would recommend her to everybody, people still comment of how amazing our first dance was.” Thank you for your feedback, what a beautiful couple, loved our chats and laughs along the way. Congratulations and thank you for using YFDC. Looking forward to being in contact with Shani, recently announcing opening her own Events Planning Business. Well done x Love from the team at YFDC x”

“I started doing Twerk It with Anne-Marie and Courtney two years ago, in Hamlyn Terrace. It was absolutely amazing! It can be really hard to love your body as a woman. The media tells you that you have to have flat this, and tight that, toned this, and shaped that, but never that you are enough just the way you are. But at this Twerk class, I felt more than enough, I felt sexy as. With these classes, I developed a whole lot of appreciation for jiggle. I know that sounds so strange. To appreciate the wobbly bits, but that’s what this is! Twerk is all about the wobble, the more you can make it bounce, jiggle, and wriggle, the sexier it is! Take a look at any twerk video, the butt is sexiest when it bounces. And the thing is, the more you love your body, the sexier and more confident you feel! And there is nothing sexier than confidence. You can see it in the women after class too!! Everyone is tired but really, to quote Beyonce, “feelin’ themselves.” And that leaks out too, in every other part of life. Especially if you’re a mum. It can be so hard to get your mojo back, you are just tired and it is such a struggle to feel sexy. Not with these classes! Even if I was tired, and didn’t want to go, I’d always push myself to attend, and every time I was glad I did!!!”

“Hi i’m Nilza I’m 39 and i dance. Not any kind, but burlesque. The kind that is sexy and sultry and helps you loose inhibitions. That’s me second from the left oh and that’s my daughter on the far right. I came across Anne Marie’s add for the studio after a personal tragedy and had been feeling flat. I think I kinda shocked Anne Marie when I told her what had happened. I needed something to pep my naturally happy self back up. So off we went to a dance class. Just to see what it was about. First visit and we were up. Man I didn’t even wear my sports bra. Lol. We were hooked first lesson in. Dancing with my daughter has been a blast. At the studio Soph and I aren’t your regular mother daughter. Lol we never are actually. We take the piss out of each other. We egg the other on and it’s all in good fun. Soph sometimes takes it very seriously and you just laugh. We even convinced Soph’s cousin to join us. So the dynamics between the two girls and me is a barrel of laughs. Poor Amy didn’t know what hit her when we all joined. Anne Marie is awesome. She laughs with us. Her choreography is fab. I do feel sultry and sexy and got my mojo back. No matter the day to day stresses happening Soph and I always make sure the other is going to dance. It’s almost like our girly bonding time. Home life I’m the mum but at dancing we are almost equals only I’m better lol. The girls have helped me get through some tough stuff and are have shared in my happy news too. I really enjoy going to classes every week.”
