Roynon Performing Arts

A wonderful evening for our Scouts taking part in Swan Samba's drumming workshop. Not only fun and active but Gary's enthusiastic, dynamic teaching style meant that the children were fully engaged in learning new drumming skills.

Roynon performing Arts and Swan Samba band performed at Hedge End Carnival on 1st July. It was fantastic to have the Swan Samba band as part of the procession the rhythm of the drums had the streets dancing with feedback received was that it was like carnivals from old. The Dancers were graceful and moved as one as they performed through the streets of the procession. They band and dancers smiled the whole way round the route even in the heat of the sun making the carnival procession a memorable experience for the community.Roynon Performing Arts dancers provided an energetic dance display at Greta Park. Their performance demonstrated smooth and beautiful movements in rhythm to the music. the dancers put their heart and soul into the dance. Very gifted, well done! Would like to say congratulations to Roynon Performing Arts Dancers and swan samba band for their performances at the Carnival and Thank them for taking part.

Roynon Performing Arts is a great school. The teachers are highly skilled, enthusiastic and caring. They provide a vast variety of dance styles & music lessons to meet all abilities. Both my children have had 1-1 tuition, which was very personal & supported their individual needs. Roynon’s focus is on pupil well being as well as their teaching.

What a lovely workshop by Swan Samba! Gary was kind, inclusive and adapted his teaching to fit the needs of the group! Would 100% recommend to other schools and colleges, a well received addition to the curriculum!

Moving to Roynons was one of the best decisions I ever made. The wide range of classes in which are offered have helped me improve more than I could ever imagine, both in my dancing/singing but also in my confidence. Each lesson has a fun, positive atmosphere whilst in a professional learning environment. Every single teacher is so lovely, supportive and passionate about what they do and have helped me fall back in love with dance again. Everyone is so so friendly and I have honestly made the most amazing friends of which I’m so grateful for. I have so much to thank every single person at Roynons for, it really is the best place to be!

After previously playing guitar and learning at ACM Guildford I took some time out from playing, after a few years I decided I wanted to get back into it. So I started guitar lessons with Gary, he is a wealth of knowledge and has approached me with a different learning style which has really valuable in helping me learn more about guitar and I’m really enjoying our sessions!Gary brings an awesome energy to our session , he has a huge passion for music! Thanks for all so far Gary!

Roynon Performing Arts have supported the St Peter's Church Country Fayre for the many years with performances by their young dancers and the Swan Samba band. They are a firm favourite at the annual event and we highly recommend them! The Samba band get the fayre off to an uplifting start, and the dancers are wonderful and clearly love being at part of the groups. Thank you Sarah and Gary for all your support and we are delighted that you're part of the 2023 fayre!

My son had some private 1:1 samba drum lessons with the band leader.Gary was amazing. His explanation of the timings and the songs was straightforward and engaging. My son really progressed with his drumming and enjoyed every lesson.

Thanks to Gary and the crew at Swan Samba for accompanying our Scout St. George's Day Parade on Sunday. The procession down the aisle of Winchester Cathedral was incredible!
