"Tassos and I decided we wanted to look good for our first dance, not the usual swaying around in the middle of the dance floor waiting for the song to end....
We were recommended Tuca Dance Company as a dance teacher through friends and if I'm honest we had no idea what to expect from the whole experience, it was a complete unknown. We ended up having such great fun and our first dance is still the most powerful memory I have of our brilliant day. We ended up taking only 3 lessons, which is demonstration in itself of Gemma's brilliant teaching.
Now, when we dance at friends' weddings there is a wonderful togetherness, a legacy of the fun and lessons we had with Gemma.
I would highly recommend Gemma to others wanting something personal for their first dance - in fact I already have. A colleague of mine and his now wife worked with Gemma on their first dance and had the same feedback on their experience as Tassos and I did. I believe they chose a rock song, so there are no limitations."

Love productions were looking for a group of dancers to perform at their charity concert, raising money for the Isabel Hospice. Lucy brought seven brilliant dancers. Her choreography was superb and the interpretation of Frank Sinatra's 'September Rain' was breathtaking. The girls were a pleasure to work with and extremely professional. We look forward to working with Tuca Dance Company again.

Dear Lucy and Gemma
Just wanted to say thanks for letting me be involved yesterday with the Tasis Summer Camp. I had a really great time. It was lovely to see how the kids respond to you Lucy, you are a great teacher and they obviously have so much fun. Really hope the show went well on Friday for all of you. If you ever want any other help in the future I would love to be involved.

Just wanted to say thanks for all your work, efforts and organisation on the camps again. Some great feedback…as usual. You guys certainly help enhance the camp and the experience our students have. It was great working with you and we’ll see you in August. Have a great summer.

Thank you for all the time from you and Agatha - it's made a huge difference for us and we have both really enjoyed it as well. In fact we might even have to find out about a dance class we could go to together once everything has settled down. Thank you again to you and Agatha - it's been a great experience.

As a company Ellie & Charlotte have used Tuca on numerous occasions for choreography, fashion shows, supplying models and exhibitions. Apart from Gemma and Lucy’s creative talents – they are professional, approachable, trustworthy and most importantly reliable. Their ability to translate my brief and deliver what I want is second to none. I would not hesitate to recommend Tuca to anybody.

Gemma and Lucy offer an exceptional service, where by they manage to combine creativity, pro-activeness, flair and professionalism, in a perfect blend of dance and event management. Throughout last year we have used Tuca Dance Company for all our key corporate events, to which they added that extra special touch.

We have employed Gemma from Tuca Dance Company for the past three years as a choreographer for our International Performing Arts Summer School in SW France. Gemma is always inventive with her choreography and really inspires the children to perform with enthusiasm and energy. She is at home with all styles of dance and music; she is a valued member of the artistic team. Gemma is always our first port of call when we are looking for a dance specialist.

We have always been delighted with Tuca and the range of activities they offer. The Themed activity days are so popular with our members, the children have a great day and are full of enthusiasm following the activity. As organisers Tuca take care of the whole day which is great. Can’t recommend them highly enough – a great team. Many thanks,
Annabel Graham
