3rd February 2012: I would like to start by apologising for not updating the website over the past few months, since the last update I have had a beautiful baby girl, she was born in early January and is doing very well. After the show in October the decision was made for me to take a step back from teaching until I had my baby so I handed my class over to Susannah Hodgson, the Principal of Theatrix Dance and Theatre Company. I would like to say a huge thank you to Susannah for taking the classes and also to the parents for their co-operation over the past few months. However, I am now back and raring to go and looking forward to our up and coming show and getting back in the studio.

On the 15th April, Definition Dance Company will be joining other performing artists from all over the Island to raise money for the Manx Adoption Society. We are honoured to be a part of raising money for such a wonderful cause and also to have been given the opportunity to entertain an audience by doing something that we all love.

25th October 2011: What a busy but exciting month it has been, “The Fairy Doll” at the Gaiety Theatre on the 08 October went really well. All of the dancers that took part put 100% energy in and this was demonstrated through their performances. DDC students had flare and confidence throughout both shows and anyone that wasn't at the show missed out on some brilliant entertainment.

As well as DDC dancers, Theatrix Dance and Theatre Company were enthusiastic and had a great time entertaining, from the 3 year old's to the eldest ones, their bright costumes lit up the stage. Well done to everyone that took part in the show, not forgetting of course all the parents that helped back stage, Susannah Hodgson (Principal) and Katherine Ash (Theatrix teacher).

Next for DDC is “A Pocket full of Stars” at the Gaiety Theatre in aid of the Isle of Man Adoption Society. DDC is constantly busy and that is what keeps the excitement and adrenalin pumping through the school. If you are interested in or know any one that wants to come and join in with this addictive hobby, then get in touch using the Contact link at the side of the page or through facebook.

DDC is always looking for new and exciting challenges, if you know anyone that would like some entertainment at an event then please get in touch. DDC is still doing Hen Parties, a fun way of learning a quick easy routine and maybe something to show off on the big day.
