🌟 10 YEARS OF CENTRAL 🌟

This month marks 10 years since we became Principals of Central School of Dancing & Performing Arts... and what a ten years it has been! ❤️

When we took over Central back in 2016, we could never have imagined quite how much this school, and all the people in it, would become such a huge part of our lives.

Over the past decade, we’ve had the privilege of watching so many students grow up through the school - from tiny dancers taking their very first steps into the studio, to confident young performers heading out into the world to begin their next chapters. We’ve watched friendships form, confidence grow, goals achieved and countless memories made.

There have been hundreds of exams, incredible shows, competitions, performances, workshops, celebrations and plenty of moments behind the scenes that will stay with us forever. We’ve celebrated 50 years of Central, continued a legacy that began back in 1973, and most recently became an ISTD Approved Dance Centre, allowing us to take another exciting step forward into teacher training.

But more than any achievement, we are proud of the community that Central has become. The students, families, teachers and everyone who has supported us along the way are what make this school so special.

Running a dance school is certainly a labour of love, and Central has been at the heart of our lives for the past ten years. We feel incredibly lucky to have shared so many important moments with so many wonderful young people and their families.

To everyone who has danced with us, taught with us, supported us, cheered from the audience, helped backstage or simply been part of Central over the last decade - THANK YOU! ❤️

Here’s to the memories we’ve made, the people who have been part of the journey, and everything still to come.

10 years down... and many more to go! 🥳🌟

A graduate of Wilkes Academy, Charlize has a huge passion for dance, performance and teaching. Since graduating, she has developed her career as both a performer and teacher, sharing her experience and enthusiasm with the next generation of dancers.

As a former Central student and Head Girl, we’re especially delighted to welcome Charlize back to Central as part of our faculty. 💫

Charlize is passionate about creating a positive and supportive environment where students can challenge themselves, build confidence and continue developing their skills.

We’re so excited to have her as part of the team! 🖤 by @centralschoolnorwich
