About Me

I studied ballet when I was young. I enjoyed it, but you wouldn’t have said it was my passion. Unfortunately, due to the cost of classes, costumes and uniform, I had to stop. After leaving, I explored various styles of dance from Jazz to Street, Freestyle to Modern, and revisited Ballet whilst at primary school. Although I looked up to my teacher it was still clear that dancing was not my passion, and I did not remain committed.

When I was nine my Grandmother took me to London to see “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat”! I was besotted with Lee Mead, and dreamed of being the Narrator alongside him! A year later (after also seeing “The Sound of Music”) I found the 2004 DVD of “The Phantom of the Opera”. After replaying the film countless times my Gran, again, took me to London. I came back energized and inspired! I wanted to be Christine Daae! However, we all believed this would be short lived.

A year later I had started singing lessons. I loved it more than anything. I also persuaded my mum to let me take up Street dance classes, as I was aware; if I wanted to be on the West End I needed to be able to dance. But, like before, I couldn’t stay committed and I didn’t enjoy it, so I stopped after a year. Despite this I still looked for other styles. Until, after querying about Jazz dance classes my current teacher recommended Lyrical dance. I’d never heard of this. Nonetheless, I went to my 4 free trial sessions, and I loved it. I later started Jazz and Tap as well, and now dancing is my passion! I love it more than anything! I look up to my dance teachers, past and present, and remain confident that; if I don’t make it on the stage I will be delighted to teach and maybe own a school of my own!

So, why have I made this? Well, I guess this is teaching in a way! I know what it is like starting out and am willing to help you on your dance journey! I’ll recommend my favourite dancewear and do my best to help you achieve your goals!

I know I am not a world class dancer, I am just a student! But that’s the point of this page! See the “I can’t” page for what I cannot and will not pretend to know about dancing.
