Jenny Stephenson

Our daughter Jenny was determined to shine on the dance floor from age 15. She took on several jobs to pay for lessons, hotels, competitions and travel because during that period in her life her dad was out of work and we were limited by how much we could fund her. After shear hard work & determination, pushed on by only herself, became UK champion then European champion culminating in World champion in America twice by the time she was 23. In Sweden 2006 she was nominated Dance Teacher of Year beating America, Australia, Europe, UK teachers. She realised her dream & opened dance studio in Stoke & trained and guided 30 students to realise their dream to compete in America also, several of whom became world champions. She continues to push her students to realise their potential instilling in them that DANCE is a sport, keeps you fit and disciplined. Her students adore her, take inspiration from her and stay with her for years. On leaving school many of her students have gone on to study dance in colleges and universities and credit Jenny for getting them there. She is high profile in Stoke and admired not only by students but their parents too. Born & raised in Liverpool I wish she would come back home here as she is now single again but she is too commited to her students in Stoke to give up on them and leave. She gives 100% support to her students and coaches them from the heart and they all want to be like her. Her students would cheer her on with pride.I work in schools in the area free of charge to give childeren who can't afford to come to a dance class, the chance.. I work with speacial needs children and ethnic minorites in the comunity and love every second I give to these children.
