The Dancing Master

Choreography- creating dances is great fun whether for the special moment of a newly-weds' first dance, a grand baroque opera or even a unique May-pole dance to be performed for HRH Queen Elizabeth. I have done them all!

Calling- I love calling for dances and performing the duties of Dancing Master- from intimate parties to grand society balls and have a wide repatoire of dances to suit all abilites and periods of dance. Events have included: Cambridge University- Lucy Cavendish College (Jane Austen),

St Petersburg Ball- Landmark Hotel, Banqueting House & Carlton Club (19th Century), University of Texas / Oxford University- Wadham College (Regency) Sir Walter Elliot's House (Regency), English Folk dance & Song Society- Cecil Sharp House (Regency & 19th Century)- Halsway Manor (Playford) Bal A'Cary - (18th Century)

Teaching- Teaching is my passion and am happy to work one-to-one or with large groups. If you have never danced before, just starting or an experienced dancer who wishes to tidy up their technique I would love to work with you. I am a fully qualified classical ballet teacher (Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing- Cecchetti Branch) who trained at The Rambert School of Dance. I have taught classes for the St. Petersburg Ball, Cecchetti Society. I am currently the performing arts teacher at The Vineyard School, Richmond. You may also seen me as the teacher and choreographer for 'Pride & Prejudice Having a Ball' (BBC2) 'Poldark' BBC and 'The Georgians- Behind Closed Doors'. (BBC4).
