It's Her Time Suzy's Dancing On Air

The beloved children’s entertainer’s having a ball.

For someone who is a mother of two, owns her own production company, is a children’s entertainer and now a ballroom-dancer extraordinaire, Suzy Cato could be forgiven for just wanting a cup of tea and a lie-down.

But instead, she’s bright-eyed, bushy-tailed and absolutely beaming as she tells the Weekly of the positive changes she’s experiencing thanks to her introduction to ballroom dancing.

“I’m loving what it’s doing for me mentally and physically. I feel so much stronger and so much more mentally alert. And driving to the studio, I’m just buzzing!” she says of her five-day-a-week training regime for the past four weeks.

It could be said this is somewhat of a dream come true for Suzy (49), who admits to being a big fan of previous seasons of Dancing with the Stars and day-dreaming about her own foray onto the dance floor.

“I got a telephone call out of the blue, completely unexpected, and my jaw dropped,” Suzy recalls of the moment she was asked to appear on the series. “I had watched it previously and gone, ’Oh! Imagine if!’ So when the opportunity came about, I said, ’That would be absolutely wonderful. Let me give it some thought and I’ll get back to you.’ But then I hopped off the phone and screamed with excitement to my husband!”
