Charlotte has been encouraging dance at Hemingford for a number of years. Her dedication and clear joy for the subject shines through and rubs off on the children in her care. Charlotte is extremely professional, reliable and adapts to the expectations within the setting. 

Charlotte has gone above and beyond to provide dance opportunities to our children and has recently led them in a local dance competition. 

 

 

Talent Dance Academy is a wonderful company that has been used by the school for many years. The staff are professional, enthusiastic and reliable and the quality of provision is second to none. All communications to families is managed by the company and communication between the school and the company is strong.

Charlotte and her Talent Dance Academy have been with us at Newton since 2021, delivering curriculum lessons and dance clubs. This has provided our children with an opportunity to work with a specialist to develop their creative and performance skills in this field in a way that we as a staff of non-specialists could never offer. Charlotte and the team have worked hard to link their work with the class curriculums – liaising with teachers so that the children are able to make meaningful connections. She has created dance routines for school shows and generally goes over and above what is required of her, even helping out in the lunch hall!

 

We have so appreciated what Talent Dance have offered to our school.

Newton Primary School

Talent Dance Academy, led by the brilliant Coach Charlotte, has been a fantastic addition to our school community over the past two years. Their dance curriculum has been fun, engaging, and perfectly pitched to keep our children excited and motivated each week. The pupils have loved every minute of their lessons and always look forward to their next session. As a teacher, I have learnt so much from observing the high-quality coaching and have been inspired by the creative and inclusive approach to teaching dance. The after-school dance clubs have also been a wonderful extension to our extra-curricular offer, adding energy, creativity, and joy to the school day.

We have been working with Talent Dance Academy for the last 3 academic years. They have been an integral part of our curriculum development of PE, dance and well being across the school.  Engaging with Talent Dance academy has benefited both our children and the CPD of our staff. On a termly basis themed dance days are delivered from Pre – School up to year 2. During our yearly health and well being week Talent Dance academy has delivered dance and multi skill activities, giving our children the opportunity to participate in a wider range of physical activity but also an opportunity for our teaching staff to observe experts in their field. We recently undertook a full school Enquiry based topic about Brazil. Talent academy was able to teach our children a wide variety of Brazilian carnival dance and a fabulous opportunity to use costumes and prop. We can not recommend them enough and will continue our relationship with them.

Pe Lead & EYFS Class Teacher
Hartford Infant and Preschool

I am a primary school teacher who has had the privilege of working with Charlotte and TDA to develop my dance teaching skills in PE. I have learnt a huge amount from working alongside her, and I now feel so much more confident, not only in teaching dance, but also in planning my own dance units from scratch. She supports teachers through dance units in a way that’s well-matched to their own confidence, offering kind feedback and direction along the way. The sessions are well-structured and clear, and she picks up the individual needs of children incredibly quickly! We are constantly encouraged to think about how to challenge children, and scaffold for children too. As well as the PE sessions, Charlotte has also helped me through starting up an after-school dance club at my setting. I wouldn’t have had the self-assurance to do this without her support and guidance, and it has enriched my teaching experience hugely. I feel very lucky to have had the opportunity to work alongside Charlotte and TDA – it’s really helped me to find a passion and confidence for teaching dance. I’d highly recommend her service to anyone wanting to develop their confidence in dance and gymnastics teaching.

We have been delighted to have Talent Dance Academy covering PPA sessions for our Key Stage 1 classes. The children are fully engaged and consistently look forward to each session with excitement and enthusiasm.

Each lesson is exceptionally well planned and delivered, with clear progression and a strong focus on enjoyment and skill development. The instructors are professional, passionate, and brilliant with the children, creating a positive and supportive learning environment.
 

Talent Dance Academy has made a noticeable impact on our pupils’ confidence, coordination, and love for dance. We are incredibly grateful for their contribution and would highly recommend them to any school looking to enrich their curriculum with high-quality dance provision.
