ABOUT ME

I danced throughout my childhood and enjoyed the freedom and expression it gave me. As a teenager I was introduced to pilates and quickly appreciated the way it improved my strength, coordination and body awareness, so continued to practice it alongside my dance training. Whilst at University I developed a deep passion for the health and educational benefits of dance and movement, which fuelled my desire to pursue a career in this field.  I strongly believe that both dance and pilates can be accessible and enjoyable for all, and take great reward from witnessing participants reap the physical and psychological benefits that movement can provide.
