Welcome to the page for KB Dance projects, by Miss Becky - Spring Term 2021

 

Hello everyone at the Kinder-Berry School of Dance, Northwich!

 

Here are our four class projects for the second half of our Spring Term. I hope that Miss Wanda's 1st class group, usually on Saturday mornings with her, enjoy the practice films to keep dancing at home and I will see my usual three Zoom classes again starting Saturday 6th March.

 

Zoom invite login links will have been sent out as usual to join the class on Saturdays.

 

Click on the images below for your class, to take you to the relevant page for either your practice at home films or Contemporary Dance Project Pack, to assist with the work we are going to be looking at on Zoom.

 

When you click on the picture link for your class group, it will take you to a password protected page.

 

Either Miss Wanda or I will have informed all Parents, Guardians and Carers of the password. They can email me if they don't have the password.

 

My email address is at the bottom of this page.

Rebecca Little - Teaching Biography

 

Rebecca (Miss Becky) gained her 1st dance teaching qualification with the ISTD at the age of 18.

She grew up on Castle in Northwich, Cheshire and started dancing at the age of 3 at a local school in the area, with Claudia Stansfield. At the age of 8 she started to study over in Liverpool on Saturdays, at the Elliot Clarke School.

At age 11 Rebecca auditioned and won a place at the prestigious Arts Educational School, Tring Park (now Tring Park School for the Performing Arts).  She studied there for seven years right through to her A’ Levels, becoming Head Girl and also achieved major levels in exams for dance, drama and music, including:

For many years as well as a performer in professional Pantomimes, she was also the Dance Captain, working closely with the Choreographer and maintaining their standard of the choreography in the productions.

She has delivered dance and drama workshops in junior schools for key stages 1 - 4, with youth theatre groups and at Derby University for Education Studies students.

In 2018 when she returned to live in her hometown of Northwich, Rebecca began teaching for Miss Wanda Kinder-Berry at her school, Kinder-Berry School of Dance.
