No flash in the pan
Despite our evening starting off slightly on the wrong foot (no pun
intended...OK maybe just a little one) in which all queries regarding
the delightful Sarah Toner were met with vague stares, we eventually
found “The legs”. And what legs they were! Enveloped in a racy pair of fishnets
with inevitable teetering heels dangling at the end, this woman was a serious
strutter.
With introductions complete, TB and I were
immediately herded to a quiet area of the SSG to begin our lesson in Deportment.
First up were a few feet warm up exercises and then a few floor stretches before being shown the art of how to be Fabulous in Heels.

Very chatty, very interesting and delightfully charming, ST could not have been more unlike her counterparts in THAT scary Ballerina movie.

Le fabuleux Repetto
After a good hour chatting, strutting and gazing at Ms Toner's truly
amazing pegs, we were each bestowed with a parting gift of Sarah’s “Fabulous in High Heels” book ( a wonderfully illustrated takeaway masterclass) but not before having a quick peek at the divine Repetto concession ( a must for any girl, any age).
With a ballet career spanning over an impressive 25 years, Sarah has spent countless hours treading the boards on tippy toes and now uses her invaluable experience to teach others. She holds regular morning, evening and weekend classes for children and adults in her North London Studio, and hosts “Fabulous in Heels” masterclasses upon request.

As someone who feels more like Minnie Mouse in drag when schlepping
about in heels, I do now feel a little more at ease when walking with a few
more inches underfoot.... So, thank you Ms Toner.
