Summary

I am a professional dancer, teacher and multidisciplinary artist with extensive experience in dance and teaching. My background is rooted in Hip Hop and urban dance, with specialities in Waacking, Hip Hop Feminine Style, Urban Contamination and Freestyle. My teaching focuses on musicality, technique, confidence, performance and helping dancers develop their own movement identity. I have experience teaching in university and studio environments, working with different levels and particularly enjoying teaching teenagers and adults. Alongside dance, my experience in DJing, music production, theatre and modelling gives me a broad understanding of music, performance and artistic creation, which I bring into my classes and creative work.
