Miss Joanne Farnell School of Dancing

I began the dancing school, offering weekly Ballet, Tap and Jazz dance classes. My main aspiration was to focus on enjoyment and instil my passion for dance with our pupils, whilst developing their skills and, where applicable, work towards official examination accreditations. As the School expanded and developed, I was joined by Miss Danielle and we were able to offer other dance styles and performance opportunities for all our pupils. We perform annually in The Salford Dance Festival at the Lowry as well as at local schools in the community. But most noticeably, annually produce our very own themed Dance Show, which have gone from strength to strength, and every pupil plays a significant part in the success of these shows. These performances really support the work done on a regularly weekly basis on developing their confidence and interaction as a group. And it really is a joy to see how much the pupils enjoy these events as they showcase ability and technique. We are proud of our genuine family ethos at the Dance School, and many of our older pupils are encouraged to support the very young pupils and have the opportunity to gain teaching experience supporting classes along with myself, Miss Danielle, Miss Jodie and other teaching staff.
