“Rachel has been my child’s stage teacher for the past year now and she is fantastic. Rachel is very welcoming and has so much time for the children in her class. She takes the time to help your child feel confident and show them what they are capable off doing with a lot of encouragement and support along the way.
My child has also had a few privates with Rachel in acro and dance. In her Acro private Rachel took the time to work through different techniques with Lilly to see what she was capable of doing and supporting her the whole way. Rachel was very patient with Lilly and going at Lilly’s pace and level of skills. Lilly has excelled in Acro with Rachel’s help and her confidence has never been bigger which is encouraging her to push herself to new limits. We recently had a private with Rachel in lyrical dance for a solo choreography dance to take to Lilly’s first competition. Rachel took the time to go through some simple moves as-well as some more complex to help push Lilly. Rachel also asked for Lilly’s input along the way asking what her favourite moves are and implementing them into the best solo suited for Lilly’s age and development and she’s smashed her solo taking away a trophy.
Will definitely be booking more privates and solos! 100% would recommend Rachel for all your dance and acro needs.”
“ Rachel’s work ethic, enthusiasm, and reliability makes her a standout teacher, and it is truly a pleasure to have her on board. Rachel’s positive attitude is infectious. She brings an energy to every class that is not only engaging but also creates an environment where students are excited to learn. Her rapport with the children is exceptional—she effortlessly connects with them, creating a safe, supportive, and fun atmosphere where they can thrive. Her ability to inspire confidence and encourage creativity in each student is remarkable. In addition to her fantastic work with the children, Rachel is incredibly reliable and dependable. Any task or responsibility given to her is completed to the highest standard, and she always approaches every challenge with enthusiasm and professionalism. Working with Rachel is an absolute pleasure, and I have complete confidence in her abilities both as a teacher and a team member. I wholeheartedly recommend Rachel for any teaching role. She is a true asset to any team.”
