Last night i danced at a charity event for Breast Cancer. I was asked to choreograph a exciting set and have as many dances as i wanted choreograph and dance in. I ended up choreographing 4 dances with my girls... The Vixens. Everyone that atteneded had a great night and we had lots of support from the crowd. We manage to collect the amount we aimed for :) this will be donated to Breast Cancer Research. Exciting news...the manager of the venue was impressed with our set and said they received many compliments on how good the entertainment and dancers were, they are looking into having us dance at their upcoming events and nights reguarly..as paid work this time!! yee...

Recently i auditioned to work with Scottish Dance Theatre for a week long residency at Telford College. During the week intensive, i worked with one of SDT's company dancers, Ruth. I was chosen amongst 6 other dancers and we created a piece that will be performed at the King's Theatre, Edinburgh on the 5th June 2010. Along with this piece, i am involved in 3 others, working with different choreographers. This performance is my last as a student at telford and it will give me a chance to perform as a graduate.

This is a picture that was taken when i was dancing in my Christmas show at St. Stephens Church in Edinburgh. This peice is called Monoplay and was choreographed by Laura Proudfoot, picture taken by Chris Kidd.

you will be able to see this peice being performed when i go on tour in April.

I go on tour in the next few weeks, first date starting on the 17th of march until the 1st of April. i will be performing in several pieces of dance which include Contemporary, Jazz and my own choreographed duet. I will be touring Edinburgh, Fife and in Newcastle.

I am pleased to have the role of Rehearsal Director whilst I am on tour, this job consists of Rehearsing my peers throughout the tour and working with spacial difficulties and problems that will occur when dancing.

I am very excited about going on tour with my peers and i also look forward to teaching secondary and primary school children.

1st of April - St. Stephens Church, Stockbridge, Edinburgh. 7pm

hope you can all make the shows!
