Our Story
Studio S Dancers began with a simple dream: to share the joy of dance and inspire confidence in every student. From our first class, our mission has been to create a welcoming space where dancers of all ages and abilities can express themselves, grow, and shine.
Over the years, we’ve grown into more than a dance school — we’ve built a community. Through performances, competitions, and local events, we celebrate creativity, dedication, and fun, making every dancer a valued part of our story.
Our dance studio started as a dream....
Having loved dancing and attended dance classes from a very young age, Jenni's experience of being taught dance was not always completely enjoyable.
As a very energetic and creative child, her own individual style and passion for dancing was not always aligned with the dance 'norm', nor was her physical appearance. Emerging from this personal experience, a dream to create an alternative dance environment for excellence and enjoyment to be fused, started to emerge.
...and the dream just grew and grew...
After being involved in dance, music and drama throughout her education, Jenni left school and went to Keele University to embark on a Paediatric Nursing Degree. This did absolutely nothing to quench the powerful appetite to dance and to perform, and the dream to create an inclusive environment for dance just grew...
Being mindful of advice to pursue professional qualifications in dance , Jenni successfully completely a BA (Hons) in Dance at Manchester Metropolitan University, going on to study Street Dance in London with Matt Lopez, (Broadway Dance Centre) Fred 'the realness' Folkes, Mechanikool, Stuart Bishop (The Rudeye Dance Agency) and later with Darcey Bussell at the Royal Academy of Dance.
...Studio S officially begins!
Studio S started its life in a variety of church halls in and around Alsager, until the new Studio was ready to use in 2015.
Once the new building was ready, a weekly class timetable was offered, with a heavy emphasis on empowering children and young people to perform, believing that the experience is invaluable in a multitude of ways.
Jenni has been extremely successful in creating an environment at Studio S, where children and adults can enjoy dance, music and performance, free of any pressure to conform to any perceived 'norm'. At the same time, those who demonstrate exceptional talent and commitment are nurtured and encouraged to reach their full potential.
