I started dancing at the age of 7 when I trained in ballet, tap, modern jazz, contemporary and commercial. When I was 18 I went on to train at Wilkes Academy of Performing Arts studying musical theatre for 3 years. Following this I gained an apprenticeship with Dancers INC agency. During this time and since I have been lucky enough to perform and model at The Brit Awards, X factor, Salon International, Pantomimes, Corporate events and various other productions. I have always had a passion for choreography and have been teaching for over 7 years which I love!
