These courses are for prospective professional dance educators, dancing professionals or existing teachers
with the old AISTD, LISTD and FISTD qualifications who need to add the new FDI & CDE qualifications. Most of the course sessions take place with Tutor Virginia Wilkinson who is an Examiner and Assessor. Katy Colegrove is the support tutor for Tap and Modern.
Classes, Lectures, discussion groups and format guidance for all modules. Group workshops,
one to one tuition & observation. Highly motivated study with proven results of nearly 100% success
in the modules already covered by those registered at Roynon Dance Centre.
We currently have over 50 teachers training with us.
Arrangements for tuition may vary between :-
Single "one off" guidance for modules that are not genre specific
- for those teachers with a full background knowledge just needing a push in the right direction.
An intense period of study for a teacher needing to start from scratch with an unfamiliar genre study (e.g. wishing to do tap - but never having covered ISTD syllabus work).
We are sensitive to the difficulties faced by some students who need to plan around own teaching timetables and family commitments. We arrange carefully structured training programmes to suit individual requirements.
Many teaching professionals prefer our modular approach to work around their other commitments rather
than a strict academic regime. We are however well planned and organised. We plan classes well ahead
and often ask our students the most appropriate times for them.
We are a regional centre for the ISTD's APL Courses. Please contact the Education and Training Department at the ISTD for further details of future dates.
