"I was bit apprehensive before attending the first session but that soon disappeared. The tuition was first class and enabled everyone to participate fully. I thoroughly enjoyed the course, and I found it very useful in improving my mobility and sense of balance.
Joo-Lee Stock is an inspired teacher who motivates people to try new things and enjoy them."

Janet Shannon, Retired teacher

"Excellent informal but informative style of teaching. Was made to feel very welcome and relaxed. I have really enjoyed the sessions and learning to dance has definitely lifted my mood and given me more energy".

Alice Bird, NHS participant and mother of three.

"Very pleased with the course. Quality time in a social setting. With twin girls and an infant boy at home, there has been no time for exercise or socialising. Lindy Jazz classes have provided this quality time."

Paul Bird, Operations Manager.

"Lindy Jazz has revolutionised my social life! I started being bored with the gym but I’m loving the way I feel -  rejuvenated! I love the exercise, I love the way I feel, I love the social side. I think that the lessons provide something for everyone no matter what level you are at. You learn new steps, you get opportunities to consolidate the steps.  I love the way we get to learn new things and improve. There is a great mix of people who have been several months & new people. The way you organise the classes, everyone feels valued and at ease as well as having fun. When I watch Joo-Lee & Andy I feel as if I want to learn more as they make it look so easy."

Lynda

“I love the friendly and non competitive atmosphere.  I’ve never laughed so much whilst at the same time learning new techniques.  What I really love is that it’s ordinary people dancing. I love watching ‘Strictly Come Dancing’ but that kind of dancing is so performance based and is just inaccessible to many whereas with Lindy, the aim is to enjoy yourself and develop your own style.  I like it because you meet a lot of nice people and begin to build up friendships. Joo-Lee you are just so professional, whilst at the same time, very down to earth – a brilliant coach/teacher! You make sure we understand what it is we want out of the dance experience."

Janette 

It was a really good afternnoon and we enjoyed the space you created for people to be expressive, daft and free of inhibitions - this is what real community is about. This is really good learning - just like watching a toddler have some success at a physical skill - not always able to repeat it instantly at will, but it is in there somewhere... and will come out eventually.
