What Dancers Say About The Jewels Academy

5/5 from 24 Google reviews.

I fell in love with this place the second I set foot in it! As someone who has no past in dance or gymnastics, I was worried that I would be way behind everyone else but that wasn't the case. Despite ability, size, gender, injuries or age everyone is instantly accepted and all moves tailored to your needs. There is an amazingly positive atmosphere with constant encouragement from instructors and the other Jewels. Not only have I grown as an aerialist, but I stand taller and more confidently in everyday life. Thank you for everything, Jade and Robyn! Xx— Naomi

I've been coming to the Jewels for over 3 years now and it's become one of my favourite places ever.
All the instructors are talented, kind, professional and passionate about everything they do. It's obvious at every class they take immense pride in coaching their students and they are so happy to see their students progress and growth in confidence. The atmosphere is never anything but encouraging, welcoming and fun and anyone is welcome.
I've been taught by Jade, Robyn, Paige and Justina and they're all wonderful.— Arcana M

I go to pole flow and intermediate pole. Both are wonderful! Flow is so supportive, fun and a great workout. Really helps with coordination and I felt comfortable giving it a shot as a beginner. Robyn creates amazing flow routines in different styles .
Intermediate pole has taught me such fun combos and Jade really cheers you on as well as helping with the moves. I am the strongest I have ever been and love my pole sessions! Sooo much fun. Thanks to all the wonderful instructors at Jewels xxx— Faye Minister

Jewels Academy is fantastic for all levels and abilities. Robyn is extremely knowledgable, patient and all around lovely. The flexibility class is fantastic and can be a foundation for all of the elements to train in. It has a combination of yoga moves, stretches, resistance work and conditioning. You don’t need to flexible to join, it’s all a place to start and Robyn will always go at your pace! Couldn’t recommend the Jewels Academy team more 💕💎— Molly jayne

Frequently Asked Questions

How hard is it to learn salsa?

Salsa is very approachable at beginner level because it is built on a simple, repeating rhythm you can pick up in a single session. The challenge comes later with turns and partnerwork, but early progress tends to feel quick and rewarding.

Can a non-dancer learn salsa?

Absolutely, and most people who walk into a beginners' salsa class have never danced before. A good teacher breaks the timing and footwork into small pieces, so prior experience really is not needed.

Is it possible to learn ballet as an adult?

Yes, plenty of adults take up ballet for the first time and enjoy the discipline, posture and control it develops. Adult classes are pitched to suit grown-up bodies and start from the fundamentals.

What age is too late to start ballet?

There is no upper age limit for enjoying and improving at ballet, though a professional performing career has different demands. For fitness, technique and pleasure, you can begin at any stage of life.

What are 5 basic steps in line dancing?

Common building blocks include the grapevine, the step-touch, the kick-ball-change, the pivot turn and the shuffle. Most line dances simply rearrange these familiar moves into a repeating pattern.

What is the easiest line dance to learn for beginners?

Straightforward dances with short, repeating sequences are the gentlest place to start, as they let you settle into the rhythm before the pattern changes. Ask the academy which of their current beginner routines would suit you.
