Dance Baby Dance classes are designed to be taken while wearing your baby in a sling or carrier and are thirty minutes long. No previous dance experience is necessary. We’ll learn fun dance moves and short routines to an eclectic mix of music of many genres from Pop to Rock, Jazz to Rap, Bowie to Beyoncé. We dance to music that’ll really make you want to move, saving the nursery rhymes for another time.
​
Routines are choreographed with safety and welfare in mind, and classes are suitable for babies from birth through to around 15 months (when they’ll likely want to be exploring a bit more on their own!) Classes are fun and high energy, with space to breathe and relax when needed, and are a time to come together to bask in the joy of dance. So come and learn some new moves, meet some new families and get those bodies moving! Let’s boogie!
Aqua Ball Flow
Thursdays 9.45-10.30am
Sarah Aarons
Aqua Ball Flow is a flow style class using a water filled medicine ball to perform strength and mobility focused movements. The instability of the water within the ball creates extra challenges for the body, especially core stability. The movement of the water in your hands can feel quite cathartic and energising.

Developed over many years by Tara Lee and launched in January 2021, it's a class that mixes Ancient and Modern, Eastern and Western into one intelligent movement flow. Expect a soundtrack of world, electronic and tribal beats that touches you to the core. It's about being playful, mindful and sensual whilst achieving an effective workout that brings balance physically and mentally. The liberating primal movements will allow you to feel free, mobile and like a dancer. Shesensu is about encouraging love and appreciation for the body... letting you admire what your body can do rather then what it looks like. You will leave the class feeling strong, flexible and lifted. Tara has used her 20 years experience in the fitness & dance Industry, and her knowledge from working with 1000's of women to create a fitness class that is fun but seriously useful.
