Profile and skills
A dedicated versatile dancer with autism, who uses past histories and background as driving forces for my creativity. I offer a unique personality, bubbles, encouragement and individual flavour. I believe in bringing out one’s potential. Inclusivity and diversity are huge themes within my craft. I have been inspired by the Feldenkrais Method of working internally. Movement and Character has brought another side of me out – fierce and powerful. A technical dancer, who aims to bring enjoyment, transforming people’s perspectives on disability.
A wide range of performance skills includes acting, singing and dancing. Training in ballet, tap, modern, commercial, contact improvisation, Laban, Cunningham and release. I have showcased my own choreography at the Isle of Wight Festival, Semis, Finals and at the University of Chichester. I am dedicated, creative and self-reflective. I have worked alongside tutors from Lila Dance, Amy Morvell, StopGap, Luke Brown and Ceyda Tanc. Other strengths include, flexibility, stamina, organization, reliability, friendly, loyal and working efficiently as part of a team.
