Vanessa Baldwin
Principal
After eight years of teaching dance in the Hertfordshire area I have decided to move closer to my family home and set up my very own School. Whilst living just outside of London I have been blessed to work with some of the industry's finest, from Examiners, Choreographers & West End Professionals to Agents, Casting Directors and more. I have had the privilege to learn from the best and hope to pass on my knowledge to the next generation of young dancers.
I started dancing at the age of four at The Marcia Jones School of Dance in Beeston, where I attended classes in ISTD Ballet, Tap, Modern & Disco/Freestyle. At the age of eighteen I moved to Watford to pursue a three-year Musical Theatre and Teacher Training course at the Margaret Howard Theatre College, graduating with a National Diploma in Musical Theatre and a MHTC Teacher Training Diploma. I also completed my teaching qualifications in ISTD Ballet, Tap and Modern Theatre at DDE level and recently attended the ISTD's first ever Graduation to collect my certificates. Whilst at College I was asked to teach various classes for the College Principal in her Theatre School and in my third year became a permanent member of the team. Since leaving the College in 2011 I have been teaching classes at various Schools around Hertfordshire from baby ballet to Advanced 2 Modern and Tap.
My passion has always been to teach dance. From the age of 10 I have always wanted to be a dance teacher. Watching a child skip for the first time, seeing their eyes light up when they receive their exam certificates or seeing the great friendships form in a dance class are just some of the reasons why I teach DANCE!
