Lecturing and research

I am currently Lecturer in Dance Science at Middlesex University and Visiting Lecturer at University of Roehampton teaching dance science content across the undergraduate dance programme. Topics include physiology, biomechanics, nutrition, psychology, research methods and somatics.

I am also a regular guest lecturer on dance courses across the UK including Bath Spa University, Anglia Ruskin University, Queen Mary's University London, Kingston University, Trinity Laban Conservatoire of Music and Dance, UCL and UK CAT programmes. I am a current IADMS Education Committee member and am currently researching strength training in dance at Kingston University with Dr James Brouner.
