“I started taking classes with Vanessa at age 2 which culminated in gaining my Cecchetti Intermediate Ballet. I participated in various styles of classes throughout my time at Vanessa's and I feel that my training here has given me a solid foundation with which to further my professional training at Northern Ballet School in Manchester. I still enjoy coming back to take class during my time off from school. Thank you, Vanessa!”
