PERSONAL PROFILE

I am an extremely committed member of any dance company or project, ensuring I always give over 100% at each rehearsal and performance and striving to achieve the best that I can. I have extensive training in a varied range of dance styles including contemporary, ballet, jazz and tap as well as physical theatre and teaching dance to various ages. I am quick to pick up new choreography and will always help those around me to achieve the best possible performance.
