    "Thank you so much for all the years you have taught Elisa. Her confidence and ability under your tutelage has shown not only in her performances but in her day to day life. She will be sad to graduate from dance this year, but know that she will use your teaching and guidance to help her at University and beyond. Would highly recommend Gems theatre to any parents looking for somewhere to inspire their children."

    I started attending Miss Gemma’s dance classes when I was 7 years old. Now, 10 years later in my graduating year I still love it just as much. The constant support and positive energy I have felt coming to my classes every week is unmatchable. Miss Gemma is the most kind, patient and loving teacher that I have ever come across and her constant attention for each individual in the school is so comforting as she allows everyone to shine and reach their full potential. I will miss Gems Theatre Arts and Miss Gemma after the summer however I know I still have all of these memories to take with me. I would highly recommend this studio for anyone who wants the opportunity to meet new friends, learn new skills and boost their confidence.

    I have been learning with Miss Gemma since I was 8 years old and am currently 17. Miss Gemma consistently provides a safe and supportive learning environment and teaches students about the importance of technique and resilience. I have learned so much from Miss Gemma over the years and my love and passion for dance has only grown stronger. As a young child, dance class was an important place where i could express myself and have so much fun meeting new people, making friends, and learning new things. As a young adult, dance classes provide me with a space where I can disconnect from the stresses of school and focus on doing something I love while constantly learning new skills which I will carry with me throughout my adult life. Thanks to Miss Gemma, dance will always be a part of who I am. I cannot recommend her classes enough.
