How did TLE impact my life:

TLE is a place more than dance. At the start, I was hesitant to join TLE or my school dance CCA and I chose to join TLE. I have never regretted that decision. I started proper dancing through TLE with little to almost no basic techniques. However, the instructors were very friendly and patient in teaching their students. The programme has helped me to understand the history of dance as well as variety of genres such as locking, jazz and locking which helped me to greatly improve as my body awareness increased.

TLE is also a place where I make friends that I can go to. For my case, I have been dancing with the same group of people since the start (probably about 2-3years) and the bonds we share are irreplaceable. It is rare to have friends to dance with for so long and Legacy has made me appreciate them even more.
