.: Testimonials

From the moment we met, there was a connection with Sarah Jane and Kelsey, now 17 She saw something in Kelsey that others hadn’t seen. Sarah Jane is funny, passionate and a perfectionist. We wouldn’t want Kelsey to be taught by anyone else. We are so glad Sarah Jane fell into our lives. Kelsey has got amazing grades in her LAMDA Exams and was also allowed to have some freedom with the pieces chosen for these exams and festivals. Being with Sarah Jane has opened up opportunities she would never have had. Sarah Jane will be a friend for life. (Nikki and Kelsey Baker) Poulton-le-Fylde

Our daughter, Phoebe, now 14, has been a pupil of Sarah Jane since primary school. Sarah Jane has got Phoebe through her Acting and Musical Theatre LAMDA exams and entered her for local arts festivals where Phoebe has won medals. Sarah Jane is nurturing and understanding, encouraging Phoebe to go beyond her comfort zone.Sarah Jane goes above and beyond what we expected and we highly recommend her services.

My 14 year old daughter Rachel has received one-to-one singing and acting tuition from Sarah Jane for nearly two years now. Sarah Jane has given Rachel the best experience and support during this time and she has grown in confidence, especially in acting where she has progressed really well in the LAMDA exams. Rachel is developing skills she will keep for life, and she looks forward to and thoroughly enjoys her weekly sessions with Sarah Jane. I highly recommend Sarah Jane, as she is a committed professional who inspires by example. (Marie Johnson) Poulton-le-Fylde

“Just wanted to say thank you for the fun over the past two weeks of attending Fit Tap and for your inclusiveness, fun, laughter and time spent pre-class. You really are quite amazing.I wanted you to know you are appreciated for what you share via Fit Tap nights. (CH)

When I turned 40, I decided I wanted to take up tap dancing again after enjoying it as a child. I found FIT TAP and can honestly say I have looked forward to my Friday night tap classes every week immensely. It’s a fun way to keep fit and I’ve met so many really lovely people. We do different genres of dance routines where Sarah Jane gives us expert tuition and varies the steps to suit our abilities. I have attended for 9 years and continue to enjoy the classes. I highly recommend Sarah Jane’s FIT TAP. (AS) Hambleton
