"I just wanted to write and say how much we enjoyed Saturday night at the Admiral Lord Nelson (Xmas Ball) - what a great night! My friend Debs and I have been doing the beginners course in Petersfield and wanted to see how we'd get on at a proper dance - it was brilliant and has inspired us to continue next term! Thanks for a memorable evening and a new dance experience for both of us", Hannah Miller

"Just wanted to say a huge thank you for teaching our Charleston dance class as a part of Lorraine's hen do. Fab teacher (very patient!) and each and everyone one us had an absolute blast! I definitely wouldn't hesitate in recommending you for a really fun time learning to dance! Thanks again on behalf of myself and the bride to be!" Angela Horsburgh, Hampshire

"I have thouroughly enjoyed the beginners course in Portsmouth, a good fun way of keeping fit! I had my doubts as to whether I would remember the moves but they seem to be slotting into place. Last night's ball was amazing my classmates and I all had a wonderful evening, thankyou for all the effort you and your team must have put into organising it. Thanks :)", Vikki Davison

"We just wanted to take the time to thank you so much for coming to our wedding on 11th April and running the dance classes. We had an amazing day and we very much enjoyed the dancing. So many of our guests have said how good it was. Alice's parents, who go to dance lessons, said that you were the best dance teacher that they have ever had! We were so pleased that so many people got up and took part so thank you for encouraging people to do so. We will be recommending you to others!" Alice and Mark Stevenson, Surrey

"We just wanted to say thank you so much for the Valentine's Ball on Saturday. Wonderful organisation teaching and music not forgetting all the sweeties made it a marvellous night and we were very glad we decided to go even though we were Newbies. We look forward to the next one in May. All your hard work and effort was very much appreciated."
Lizzie and Din Printer, Portsmouth.

"Just 6 months ago dancing never even entered my thought. Now I am getting pretty good, so I am told, and it feels good to me and very enjoyable. Thanks to you and your Swing Dance Company and the very special men and girls who teach and run the evenings. I can't thank them and you enough!" Jon W, Fareham
