I began dancing at Rhythm and Dreams Dancing Centre almost four years ago after a long break from dancing, and my two children followed shortly afterwards. All of the classes are fantastic and my children are starting to develop preferences for their own style, although they are still very exited about all of the dancing they do. We all enjoy the classes, shows and competitions we now have the opportunity to take part in and I have watched my children grow in confidence and ability. Thank you to everyone at Rhythm and Dreams for being the people you are, your kindness goes beyond professionali— Toni Ashmore
I started dancing with The Hull University Ballroom & Latin Dancing Society, when Vicki was training them, back in the days when she was holding classes and lessons in the RBL hall in Hessle, going back some 17 years or so…
As a builder, it was somthing that I'd never though of doing, but a friend encouraged me to start dancing, and I never looked back.
It's such good fun, a great way of keeping fit, and I've met loads of lovley people through my dancing too, providing me with an even better sociial life than I had before.
Vicki is an excellent teacher, and now that the school has moved to t— Andrew Smith
My daughter first started dancing latin & ballroom with Vicki at her old studio 5 years ago and since then has grown through the classes and exams to compete at top events and winning many competitions,when Vicki bought her own studio the school gained valuable space with a proper dance floor,clean facilities and wonderful friendly staff,the teachers,older dancers and wonderful mums and dad are extremely friendly and helpful but it is Vicki herself that gives all the pupils 100% of her expertise and knowledge and encourages them to grow as confident talented dancers and thats why I'm writing t— ebony codling
Rhythm and Dreams is a lovely dance studio with a spacious floor, comfortable lounge and dressing room, decent sized car park and glitterball! It is tastefully decorated, always clean and tidy, with a wide variety of snacks and drinks for sale. They have classes for all ages and abilities and cover a wide variety of dance styles. I have been dancing at the studio for 15 years and have had the opportunity to take regular medal tests. I attend a private lesson every week with Vicki and would highly recommend the studio.— Sheila Harrison
Yes, adults can take up ballet through classes designed for grown-up beginners, valued for building posture, strength and control at any age.
No age is too late to begin. Adults start ballet throughout their lives, provided the class is aimed at beginners.
Line dancing commonly uses the grapevine, step-touch, kick-ball-change, pivot turn and shuffle, which combine into many beginner routines.
Short four-wall dances with repeating steps are the easiest to learn. A teacher can recommend a simple routine to begin with.
Yes. Many dancers attend alone, and classes are run so that solo dancers can take part fully, often by rotating partners during the session.
Comfortable clothing you can move in and shoes that let you turn safely are all you need to start. Nothing specialist is required at first.
