AN enterprising Tweed acrobatics teacher is bending over backwards to ensure her students keep up their classes.
Yolanda Skye, from Elastic Banz at Cudgen, is using the internet to conduct classes three times a day which also doubles as a group chat session.
“It’s great to see the smiles on the students’ faces. It also brings a degree of normality to their lives in these extraordinary times,” Yolanda said.
“I am also getting messages of thanks from parents because the classes provide something the students look forward to and helps break the boredom of being stuck at home.”
She holds classes for students of all ages from her Tweed Heads South home.
“I try to limit the numbers depending on the age groups I am taking,” she said.
“For the littlies, we try to have only about five in the classes so that I can focus on what they are doing and provide more individual instruction and for the older students, we can have up to a dozen.”
At the moment, Yolanda is just conducting classes for existing Elastic Banz students but was open to people interested in her classes contacting her via email at yolandaskye@hotmail.com
