Our Twisters 1 class is an introduction to gym for 1-2 year old children along with their parent/carer. We carefully structure our classes to encourage the children to become confident in climbing, rolling, jumping and balancing. You and your child can discover together all the aspects of gymnastics under our guidance. We use songs and music to enhance our classes, along with hand apparatus and a wide variety of colourful small and large equipment which we use to aid our teaching in many ways. Check availability
Our Twisters 2 is a gym class for 2-3 year old children with their parent/carer. This is a more challenging gymnastics class where in addition to teaching climbing, rolling, jumping and balancing, we introduce shape, colour and number. Encouraging the children to become confident and to be happy and enjoy their time with us is a main objective for all of us at Twisters. As your child nears three years of age and is wanting to work more independently we offer classes without the parent/carer: Dance Drama and Gymkids Check availability
A lively, fun and energetic introduction to gymnastics. We cover all aspects of gymnastics using each term to focus on rolling, jumping or balancing. Our carefully structured classes encourage the children to gain confidence in working independently whilst having consideration for others. Classes include • Warm up song/activity • Small hand apparatus • Team work • Floor work for necessary skills leading to handstands, forward rolls etc. • Equipment circuit • Stretch
A natural progression from baby ballet. This class is also fine for beginners who are keen to learn. We cover all basics and use a variety of music and props to express ourselves through music and movement. I always choreograph a lovely group dance to perform at the end of term. Ballet wonderful for posture, musicality and discipline.
This is the most advanced class for girls aged 13 and over. We also have a point work section in this class for those who wish. Girls must have had experience for several years to join this class and it offers not only a challenging ballet class but also fitness, flexibility and also socially a group if girls who love to dance.

The sessions begin with a song to encourage participation in a variety of movement and dance to bring story books to life! We carefully select stories to suit all temperaments and devise ways to encourage the children's imagination and creativity. The stories gradually unfold to music. Songs, words, movement, dance and our wide variety of small and large colourful equipment all play a part in involving children in the magic of books. Your child could sail away, fly on a magic carpet, become a bird, a fish, a lion, a dragon, a policeman a 'wild thing', playing the role of many story book characters, all in a 40 minute session! During the term we cover several stories, at the end of each term you can come to see your child 'perform' the latest story at a demonstration class.
From three years onwards children can come independently to class. To make ballet fun and enjoyable for all ages we endeavour to make our classes relaxed and happy. We use a wide variety of music, our emphasis being that the children learn to express themselves using their imagination through dance. Each week the children learn new steps, ballet mimes and movements. For the end of each term we work towards a group dance and invite you to come and watch your budding ballet dancer/ballerina! See the improvement in posture, concentration musicality and poise in your child. We welcome boys and girls of all ages and abilities. Check availability

This class is for children who have had some experience in ballet. We introduce barre work and more challenging steps whilst getting a good technique in place. Although ballet is hard work I like to include some fun elements to the class.
This class is suitable for girls or boys who have had a little experience. We progress to barre work and a wider range of steps. We try and improve technique and strength as well as practising how to perform.
