Employment History & Experience

I have danced since I was 10 years old and have experienced a variety of dance genres. I began with Ballroom and Latin and really enjoyed it. I was advised to take it up professionally but my mother wanted me to study so....
At the moment I do Ceroc to keep fit and have taught Ceroc at beginners level.
I have recently started Argentine Tango and prior to that Flamenco. Unfortunately the teacher became pregnant so I had to stop. For fitness purposes I have experienced some belly dancing which is very strenuous.
I love all dancing and would try anything!
