 Director
of Dance Rhythms
Susan Cooper has been dancing since the age of
five, taking her very first dance steps at a local children's dance
class in Oxford run by Vic and Terry Marsden who ran the very well
respected Marsden academy of dance.
Susan feels she owes much to her first teachers, who gave her the
strong foundation in dance that she carries forward with her today.
In later years she even went on to become head teacher in this school.
Susan competed in under 8 events known as juveniles and also 12-16
yrs known as junior level. It was during this period of time that
she then began to train in London at the Wimbledon dance studios with
the world renown Mr Patrick Plumb, a true master in the world of ballroom
and Latin dancing. Through this connection came a deeper understanding
of dance and a move forward into the amateur competitive world.
Susan always knew that she wanted teach and it was a natural progression
that this should happen.
Today she runs one of the largest and most successful dance schools
in England namely Dance Rhythms, which caters for all
styles and ages from 4-94 years, from the complete beginner to professional.
Susan has been teaching for over 30 years. She holds many qualifications
in Ballroom, Latin, classical and modern sequence,, salsa, theatre,
rock n roll, belly, hip hop, street, freestyle and of course her love
argentine tango, all up to fellowship level.
Susan is an examiner of the UKA (United Kingdom Alliance) and also
holds the proud position of director within the society a post that
she has held for the last 8 consecutive years.
As well as teaching for many holiday firms, hotels and TV companies
over the years, Susan also takes an active part teaching in the school,
examining and adjudicating in this country and over seas.
Its nice to know with all that back ground that she always says that
some of her most enjoyable times are teaching absolute beginners.
It is nice to know that she still finds so much pleasure in still
doing that .
A teacher that is in touch with every level of dancer.
