Testimonials

Miss Shelley is a wonderful dance teacher, and both my daughters absolutely love their lessons with her! I cannot recommend Isaac-Clarke Academy of Dance highly enough!

Alex has been so happy learning to dance with you – he is so enthusiastic and is enjoying every lesson. Thank you for inspiring him and nurturing his potential.

A lovely dance school for people of all ages to attend and enjoy. My little girl Jessica absolutely loves going every week and has done since she was three! Thank you, Miss Shelley, for all your hard work and lovely manner with our little ones.

After an unsuccessful term with a different ballet school, where my two-year-old daughter just never had the confidence to join in, we were recommended Miss Shelley by several different people. We decided to give it a go as my daughter was still keen to go to ballet. From the very first trial lesson I knew it was going to be great. Miss Shelley has the patience of a saint and is so good at getting the little ones to engage and listen. After only 5 or 6 lessons, my daughter now loves going to ballet, listens very well, and joins in with everything. She’s also made some lovely new friends, and she simply loves Miss Shelley!! Highly, highly recommended!!

Miss Shelley has been absolutely brilliant with my teenage daughter over the last couple of years. She has enjoyed every lesson and developed her dancing skills despite being a late starter without a ballet background. I can’t recommend Isaac-Clarke Academy of Dance highly enough.

How lucky are we to have such a talented Royal Academy dance teacher in Mumbles. All my customers tell me how much their children enjoy attending this fab dance school. The examination results are first class and Miss Shelley works very hard to ensure that she gets the very best out of each individual pupil using her friendly and patient manner.

Thank you for all the inspiration and magic – the girls adore ballet.

An enlightening and infinitely patient teacher.

We are really very happy with Miss Shelley’s dance class. Our daughter thrives on the warm atmosphere and friendly teacher.

Miss Shelley is so professional, and her classes are very well thought out and perfectly age appropriate. My daughter has been going for two years and she loves it!

Miss Shelley is the best ballet teacher in the whole world.

Hannah started dancing lessons with the ‘Isaac-Clarke Academy of Dance’ when she was two and a half years old. She is now four and has really enjoyed the progression from simple creative movement with lots of instruments, to ‘proper ballet’ which in her own words is “more tricky” but lots of fun!

From the moment we met Miss Shelley, we knew our daughter, Eva, would thrive in this class. Eva is a very shy five-year-old, but the moment she arrives at ballet she takes on a new persona and literally grows in stature on the dance floor. Not only has it helped with her confidence and her posture, but she can now recognise rhythm. Miss Shelley has a lovely gentle way with all the children, showing great encouragement, kindness and patience and they, in turn, respond so well to her. I would recommend her class to everyone.

Livia has been very happy attending classes with the Isaac-Clarke Academy of Dance. Shelley offers a fantastic and gentle first experience of dance, rhythm, and expression. She obviously cares about each child’s progress while not losing sight of their need for fun. My daughter loves the class, and she looks forward to it every week – I highly recommend it.

I love 1st position of my feet.
