Fun, Fun, Fun is the aim of the Tiny Tots classes!  Our classes contain steps little children know and enjoy.   As well as The Wiggles, The Fairies, Angelina Ballerina and nursery rhymes we have skipping, marching and running and include exercise for the hands and feet to incorporate basic ballet technique.  Children start to develop their imagination with the creative use of movement.

Jasmin brings a lifelong love of ballet, storytelling, and teaching to the studio. She began dancing at the age of five and went on to complete her Gold Bar examinations in both Ballet and Jazz. Alongside her performing arts background, Jasmin holds a Bachelor of Business in Communication with a Major in Advertising and has worked professionally in the creative industries as an advertising account manager and stage manager.
