Benoni Studio on the Move!

 The Benoni studio held at St John's Congrgational Hall, Farramere were in awe of their amazing teacher, Stephanie Nel who was demonstrating certain techniques in our movement programme. Drama trained and specialising in dance, Stephanie taught the children about rhythm and co-ordination. Our unique drama programme incorporates a movement section which teaches the students that acting is not just about using the voice- its abut the whole person.
The first part of the lesson envolves them warming up their voices and loosening up!
