A DANCER from Middlewich is set to open her own dance studio and teach children from around Cheshire the art of dance, singing, and drama.


Emma Russell, 24, from Middlewich, has been dancing since the age of four and trained professionally at Tiffany Theatre College in Essex.


However, Emma is now ready to make the next step, by managing her own dance studio in Crewe.


The dance studio, Aspire Dance and Theatre Academy, will offer lessons to children from the age of two in various types of dance such as ballet, tap, modern, jazz, limbering, street, and contemporary, as well as musical theatre, singing and drama.


Emma has already got to work in employing her staff at the studio, including her mum Susan Russell who will be taking up an admin role at the studio.


Susan said: “I am really proud that my daughter has been given the chance to run the dance studio under her own name and I am really excited to get to work on it.


“We’ve been working really hard on getting the studio perfect and we’ve got some really top facilities in their now.”


The new studio is equipped with fully sprung dance floors, as well as mirrors and bars and chill out areas for youngsters.


Emma and the rest of her staff will be holding an open evening at her new studio for parents and children to have a look at the new facilities.


The open evening will take place on Friday, September 5, between 3pm and 7pm, at Units 11 and 12, Underwood Business Park, Underwood Lane, Crewe.
