The West Dorset Magazine, September 23, 2022 61 Health & Wellbeing Ballet school launches dementia class

A popular ballet school is offering classes to people with dementia. Fee Jeanes Ballet, which holds classes in Bradpole, will be offering the hour-long classes after a successful taster day. Fee said: “It was a huge hit – it brought tears to my eyes. “Heather who took part, said, ‘It’s made me “feel alive again. I loved every minute of it’. She left holding on tight to a new pair of ballet shoes “I think if this can help anyone with dementia/Alzheimer’s and their carers it has to be worth it –shining a light in what can be a dark world. Music and ballet the perfect mix. Anyone interested in the classes should email feejeanesballet@gmail.com or call 07818 838896.
