EMMA KNOX JONES
DANCE & FITNESS
PRINCIPAL & FOUNDER

"I am a great believer that you make your own luck in this world, you are not owed success, you put the graft in and you will be rewarded. I want my son to know this lesson as he grows up as nothing is handed to you just because you want it. Back in 2006, handing in my notice at a job that I really loved and starting this crazy journey was a risk but I knew that if I didn't give it a go, I would kick myself in years to come. As I often tell my pupils, 'be brave, be bold, be fearless' as who knows what lies around the corner when you take that leap of faith! It could very well be the best thing you ever do!"

Elite turns 14 this year and it's all thanks to our wonderful Miss Emma.

LOUISE JONES
FITNESS

"My name is Louise and I teach Zumba Gold on Friday mornings. I've been teaching fitness classes since 2012 and my favourite thing about it is seeing people smile, have fun and get fitter! It truly makes me happy when people start to achieve their goals and when I get to see people become happier and feel better about themselves for achieving them, and it's even more fun when we can train and sweat whilst smiling and laughing together."

GARETH HAYES

FITNESS
​​

I'm Gareth and I take the Lift and Tone class. I've worked in the health and fitness industry for over 10 years as a class instructor, personal trainer, tutor and assessor. My passion is resistance training and I love teaching others how to get the most out of lifting weights. My favourite thing about the fitness industry is seeing people achieve things they never thought they'd be capable of. The worst thing? Burpees. Always burpees.

GEORGINA DIXON
​
DANCE


"Hi! I'm Miss Georgina, I have been teaching for the past 5 years. I starting dancing when I was 2 and a half years old. At the age of 16 I attended college and did an Extended BTEC Diploma In Performing Arts, where I gained the qualifications to go to University to study a Joint BA in Dance Performance and Musical Theatre Performance. I have taken part in many armature shows, and I have a love of performing. The best thing about teaching is being able to pass on the expertise that I have gained and the passion I have towards dance and the arts. It’s wonderful to see the children grow into passionate dancers and performers."
