Wendy Richards Email and Phone Number

Wendy started dancing at quite an early age whilst still at Junior School and took her medals, competed around the South West until she gave up dancing just before leaving High School. Dancing with the Roy Whitfield and Phil Cockram School of Dancing in Exeter she competed regularly even getting to dance at the famous Tower Ballroom in Blackpool at the age of 15.​Although Wendy stopped dancing at 16 she has always loved dancing and knew that one day she would hopefully put on her dancing shoes again and her parents John & Pat Harris have always been there to encourage her.​Wendy found dancing at the age of 52 by accident when she joined a "Latin In Line" class in Pinhoe run by Joanna Partridge. This was just what Wendy needed to get back in the swing again and was soon dancing the Cha Cha and Rumba and many other dances - but in line's - no partner required.​A one to one dance lesson in 2012 with BBC's Strictly Come Dancing star - Ian Waite - a special birthday treat from Wendy's partner Sarah.This will always be the highlight of Wendy's dance career and feels very privileged to have danced with such a great dancer and personality.​Teaching others to dance is always fun at all our classes and to see people having fun and socialising at dances makes us feel so proud of what our team achieves every week!​Our time spent dancing and running Tea Dances with Wendy's Mum & Dad is also very special, we have so many great memories that will stay with us forever!
