About

At Project Dance we endeavour to provide high quality dance training in a safe and friendly environment.

We want our students to some to class with willingness to learn and in turn we will provide fun, exciting and challenging classes where they will learn dance techniques and skills for life. Students can come to class as a hobby or we can provide a more intensive program of learning for students who may wish to pursue dance as a future career.

Ultimately, we teach hard work, and value kindness. At PD we are like a family and hope that by attending our school, your child will belong to a happy dance community where they can make friends and flourish.

Hi, I'm Lizzie. I've danced all my life. First as a child and then fullfilling my dream of dancing professionally.

I trained in Musical Theatre at Laine Theatre Arts, one of the UK's leading theatre schools and after graduating I worked as a performer for several years. My years on stage took me around the world, performing as a very good friend of many Disney Princesses for Disney Cruise Line (where I was also the Dance Captain). I worked for Costa Cruises, QDos Pantomimes and even appeared in a national TV commercial.

Project Dance was established in 2006 in my home town. I have over 17 years teaching experience from beginners to advanced/ professional. I hold a Diploma in Dance Education in Ballet, Tap and Modern Theatre (DDE) with the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD), I am an RAD Silver Swans Licensee (Royal Academy of Dance Ballet programme for the over 55's) and most recently have completed the Progressing Ballet Technique (PBT) teacher training (level 1).

I am currently studying on the Diploma in Dance Pedagogy (DDP) with the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing (ISTD).

Dance has been a huge part of my life and I don't know who I'd be without it. I hope I can inspire others with this unique art form, which not only trains technique but skills for life.
