Kirstie Nickson

Kirstie’s love of music and dance began when she was given the role of a big furry rat in the musical version of Christopher Columbus! Thankfully, she ditched the rat costume but continued to sing in many musicals in Somerset and was in a local choir for many years.

She has two young children called Benjamin and Bethan, whom love to sing along with mummy in the car (although she tries to remember to sing with the windows closed as it’s very loud!! )

Kirstie has a BA Honours degree in Theology but spent most of her working life in finance. Since having children her passion for music has been rekindled and attending MAD Academy classes for more than a year has given her a great understanding of how beneficial music and dance really are for a developing child.

Just a quick note to say all the children had a great time at the party last Saturday. Eloise really enjoyed it and keeps asking for another party soon!. Thank-you.

Grace and I have really enjoyed Mad Academy. It is always fun, fast paced and stimulating. Even from very young, it held Grace's focus for the full session when some other classes didn't. Now she anticipates bits of the class and although she can look very serious she is loving Ralph etc as I can tell by her body language. Thanks for all the efforts with all the props and toys - they are much appreciated! we shall miss you over the summer!!!

Jane

Thank you for the trial session last Tuesday (I brought Alex and Elena to the walkers-age 4 class in Calne). They thoroughly enjoyed it and Alex has
been going through all his favourite nursery rhymes and singing them first very slow, then very fast ...

Victoria

Thank you so much for doing such a brilliant job at my Son Reece's 4th Birthday party yesterday, it really was a great success and you received many compliments from the parents at the end of the party on how much their children enjoyed themselves. Thank you too for the music c.d, Reece is thrilled with it and has listened to it many times today (I think I am word perfect now)!!!

"I like the way you put your sessions together with no 2 weeks being the same but always something new and exciting for them to do, more pompom songs
please! We often find ourselves singing the 'Mad' songs in our everyday life and even my husband and older son have adopted 'Driving in my car' when we are all in the car together"

Jude

"Thank you so much for the amazing job you do at our class every week, Lauren loves coming and LOVES Ralph even more. I have noticed that Laurens balance has improved greatly and that she is no longer shy in social situations."

Jude

"Thank you for the fabulous party entertainment you provided. I don’t know where you get your energy from, but it was great. The kids all loved it, especially Zac, who despite his knocks can’t stop talking about it! Your enthusiasm was wonderful and you really knew how to engage with the children."

Tracy

"Thanks for the trial session on Thursday. I was amazed at how relaxed Duncan was in the class and how he joined in almost immediately."
