Terri Clegg

First time at Bollywood Dance Class. The dance is broken down into segments which I think makes it much easier to follow. Music lends itself to the dance movements which in turn  also helps. Teacher very knowledgeable and patient.

Shanthi Flynn

I started Bollywood dancing 6 months ago with I Can Dance and love it as a brilliant way to increase fitness, flexibility and agility, as well as keeping my mind very active. Not only is it very good for me, it's tremendously enjoyable. Can't wait for when we re-start in September after the summer break. Highly recommended as a fun way to exercise.

Just love Sarah’s Bollywood dance… we always smile during class, come away smiling, still smiling at a postdance coffee. Sarah takes us through stage by stage building the dance. She’s always so positive, our brains are engaged learning new steps and bodies get a work out. And you could participate at whatever fitness level you have, there’s no pressure. Just goes too quickly! Thank you, Sarah. 

Sarah is brilliant. Always full of energy and fun. Makes the whole experience pass far too quickly!
