What the parents say...
“ Toes is just wonderful, we've both learnt so much, loved engaging together in nature and slowing down my pace during these classes was a real therapy as a mum. Thank you. We will miss Lisa and her wonderful classes so much, she is full of creative ideas and is just fab"

"This is an absolutely fantastic class. I’ve taken my son for the past year and wish I’d found it when my daughter was young. It’s so much fun with different activities each week - using the things we find around us, like making a flag with a stick and leaves or making a stick man."
