Instructors
Hannah
Hannah began dancing age 3 taking ballet classes in her local church hall and has never stopped since! She is an alumna of the National Youth Ballet, and graduated from Trinity Laban Conservatoire in 2022 with a BA(hons) in contemporary dance.
She finds so much joy in creating an environment for people to feel included and challenged simultaneously. Hannah believes dance can be the escapism, expression, joy, and community people need, and hopes to share that with every student
