History
I initially trained as a Classical dancer at the Royal Ballet School, becoming Head Girl in my final year and gaining my teaching diploma in dance which is recognized worldwide. I danced on a UK tour with thel ‘Educating Motion Company’ and belonged to Pineapple Dance Agency who secured me many dance jobs in adverts, TV appearances and exhibitions/events.
I secured my first teaching job in London, when Central School of Ballet employed me to re-launch their Junior School.(Children age 5-12 years) Over 5 years of hard work and I managed to build the school up to a high standard and choreographed an annual show performed at the Lilian Baylis Theatre, London.
Central School of Ballet also employed me to work with their Senior pupils (18-21 years) on dance teaching skills and working with children. Alongside this, I taught weekly private dance lessons to many celebrities’ children including Madonna's daughter, Lourdes for 4 years.
A book was published by DK, for which I helped write and was featured in... the children love to borrow this book when achieving the weekly MDP Award,
I was also employed at Arts Educational School, Chiswick, as their Ballet Mistress- teaching daily ballet classes throughout the school from year 7 pupils up to year 11. I entered many students for major RAD ballet exams achieving outstanding results and organised and choreographed for the Annual Easter Show.
Many of the students I trained have had successful careers and become dancers in companies and West End Shows. I love to visit the theatre regularly, seeing many of my students perform in shows and musicals.
To date, I am the Principle and teach for my own business... 'Mini Dance Performers'.(MPD) These classes aim to pass on my passion for dance and well being, I offer many years of experience to the younger generation in my local community. MDP has gone from strength to strength in the last 5 years, offering classes to 8 schools in the Surrey area and has recently collaborated with Kimberley Wyatt (KWDA) in 2025, to offer more classes outside of the school clubs.
