INTERESTS

I am very interested in different cultures and languages, and as a fluent French speaker I enjoy visiting France often. Alongside Contemporary and Physical Theatre, I enjoy other dance styles such as Dancehall, House, Vogue and I love dance theatre. I research a lot into the House and Ballroom scene of the Disco era as this is a culture which interests me greatly. I really enjoy teaching children, and helping them with their dance techniques and creativity.
