About Us

History

JLD Dance Studio has been operating since 2003 under Principal Jessica Turnbull (nee Dennis). Jessica is trained in RAD ballet, ISTD and FATD tap, jazz and modern. JLD Dance Studio – recently renovated in September 2013 – was purposely built to provide its students with 3 studios offering wooden flooring, barres and mirrors. Providing classes in jazz, tap, ballet, modern, contemporary, Irish, acrobatics and hip hop, the Studio has recently introduced boys hip hop and mums & bubs classes for 1yr olds and above. JLD Dance Studio also offers classes for both exams and eisteddfods, and holds an End of Year Concert each year for all students to participate in. The Studio’s 10 teachers encourage students to enjoy all aspects that dance offers them in a positive and happy environment.

What We Offer

We offer class, solo, exam and Eisteddfod group lessons for boys and girls from 2 years in the following areas:

  1. Jazz
  2. Tap
  3. Ballet
  4. Modern
  5. Contemporary
  6. Hip Hop
  7. Acrobatics
  8. Irish

At JLD Dance Studio, the emphasis on our classes is fun. The pressure of Eisteddfod work is left to the classes specifically scheduled for learning solo’s or groups for Eisteddfods.

Students will be learning ADA tap syllabus in tap classes and the ADA syllabus in ballet classes. Modern/contemporary and jazz/hip hop will be open style, which means they will be doing different things every week.

There will be a mid year recital as well as the end of year concert where all students will start to learn dances in their classes to be fully prepared for their performances in the recital and end of year concert.

If you have any queries please do not hesitate to get in contact with us – the easiest way is via email (jlddancestudio@hotmail.com)
