🎭💃 Why Adelphi & Apollo? 🕺🎭
Ever wondered why the two studios at LMSD are called The Adelphi and The Apollo?

They weren’t chosen just because we liked the names — there’s a story behind them.

🎶 The Adelphi is named after the famous London theatre, well known for its long history of big West End musicals.

🎭 The Apollo represents another side of performance, with the London theatre particularly associated with plays and drama.

But there’s also a much more personal connection.

Both names have Greek roots. Apollo is the Greek god of music and the arts, while Adelphi comes from the Greek word for “brother”.

And, of course, Lisa is half Greek Cypriot — so that little connection to her own heritage and of course her brothers Stephen & Simon, makes the names even more special.

So The Adelphi & The Apollo bring together theatre, music, dance, drama, performance — and a little bit of Lisa too. 💃🕺🎭❤️

Which Theatre would you rather perform in — The Adelphi or The Apollo? 👀

💃 MOVE IT! — KEEPING ACTIVE DOESN’T HAVE TO MEAN GOING TO THE GYM
If you’ve become less active, your mobility isn’t what it once was, or the thought of joining a conventional exercise class feels a little daunting, Move It! could be for you.

Move It! , on a Thursday, is Lisa’s friendly Thursday morning class combining gentle movement, music and exercise in a relaxed and supportive environment.

Move It! isn’t a new idea. Lisa originally taught the class in Haverhill through St Nicholas Hospice Care, where it was described as a “fun and light-hearted dance class”. Today, she continues Move It! independently at LMSD Studios.

There’s also plenty of evidence for why keeping moving matters.

NHS England says physical activity is particularly important for people living with long-term health conditions, and that even becoming a little more active can bring benefits.

But Move It! isn’t about pushing yourself or trying to keep up with everyone else.

It’s about:

🎵 Moving to music
💪 Gentle exercise to help you keep moving
😊 Building confidence
🤝 Meeting people and enjoying some company
❤️ Having fun in a welcoming group

You don’t have to be a dancer.
You don’t have to be particularly fit.
You simply do what you can, at your own pace.

Movements can be adapted, so if you need to take things a little more gently, that’s absolutely fine.

📅 Thursdays
⏰ 10.30am–11.30am
☕ Tea & coffee afterwards
📍 LMSD Studios, 4 Hollands Road, Haverhill

If you know somebody who has become less active, is nervous about joining an exercise class, or would simply enjoy an hour of movement, music and good company, please share this with them.

You can read more about the benefits of physical activity for people with long-term health conditions from NHS England here:

Move It! might be exactly the class they didn’t realise was out there. 💃❤️

NEW! Line Dance 4 Kidz is coming to Haverhill! 🎶🤠

We’re really excited to be launching a brand-new line dancing class especially for young people aged 6 –16.

The first class is on Wednesday 16th September, from 4:30–5:30pm at LMSD Studios, 4 Hollands Road, Haverhill.

This isn’t about cowboy hats and old-fashioned music. Line dancing today uses a huge mix of music and styles, and it’s a brilliant way to get moving, learn something new, build confidence and have fun with friends.

No previous dance experience is required. Just comfortable clothes, soft-soled shoes or trainers, and a willingness to give it a go!

If your child enjoys music, dancing or simply trying something different, we’d love to welcome them.

Places need to be pre-booked, so please get in touch with Lisa to reserve a space.

📧 [email protected]
📞 07958 788292

And if you know a young person who might love this, please tag a parent or share the post. ❤️

Huge thanks to the organisers for inviting us to perform. We had a fab time! ❤️
