Trinity Crew
Dave
Former UK Jive Top Five
dance champion Dave has been dancing for around twelve years and
teaching for over eight.
He and his partner Katya have taught hundreds of social dancers and
even some UK Champions.
He says "Nobody really has two left feet and anybody can learn to
dance, think of Darren Gough".Katya
Former UK Jive Bronze
Medallist
and teacher Katya is always looking for
that little extra to improve your dancing.
Along with her partner Dave, she usually teaches the
Intermediate Class. She
says "If you enjoy something then you will learn quicker and as a
bonus get fit and have fun".Juls
Juls normally teaches the
Beginners class with Dave and occasionally teaches Beginners and
Intermediates with Mike. Juls is always smiling and you can
normally see her dancing with our new beginner men.
She says "Get the basics right and you will have lots of time
to add those lovely touches of style" .Mike
Mike keeps us all in check
on how we should teach a move and its name!
His extensive knowledge of the correct method of teaching (19
years) helps to balance Dave's more avant-garde style.
Mike occasionally teaches both Beginners and Intermediates
with Juls and says "Keep things simple at first and you will have a
great foundation for the future".Gareth
Gareth was born the same
day and year as Dave and so exhibits the same avant-garde style.
He has great enthusiasm and with his partner Jill are a
fabulous team for Beginners +.
He says "Jill
and I
have to cover all the bits
that Dave
and Juls missed in Beginners; no wonder we always run
late".Jill
Jill is a fabulous
member of the team who always throws herself into whatever needs to
be done. With her
partner Gareth she takes the Beginners + class which has helped so
many newcomers over those first few weeks at LeRoc.
She says "It’s great to be a part of the whole Trinity LeRoc
adventure; everybody is really friendly".
B
B is Mike's partner and keeps things
moving smoothly on the dance floor.
While the rest of us are teaching it’s great to have B
keeping everyone happy, often with just her infectious smile. She says "Don't say to Mike 'you don't need a rocket scientist to do whatever', because he is one".Ann and Ted
Ann and Ted (Mum & Dad to Dave) are the friendly faces you meet at the door. Not only do they take your money but make you feel very welcome and explain the format of the evening. They say "It’s amazing how well number two son (Dave) has done, considering.
