Meet The Team

We understand that when starting a new dance class, it is helpful to put a face to your teacher’s name.

We are a friendly and enthusiastic team, bringing different skills and backgrounds to Live Love Perform ensuring you have a rounded start to dance!

  • Natalie

    Founder & Director

    With over 15 years experience as a professional dancer and dance teacher, Natalie decided to form her own dance school and share her passion with the future generations!

    What's your favourite dance move?Snake And Switch because it's bold and funky; it's well-known amongst our students that I love this move and include it wherever I can!

  • Katie

    Teacher

    Katie is currently training at Laine Theatre Arts studying Musical Theatre. Her love for dance started from a very young age at a local dance school in Glasgow. She then went on to train at the Dance School of Scotland (where she focused on Ballet) before moving to Epsom to begin her professional training. One of Katie’s highlights has been being part of the Scottish Ballet Youth Exchange where she was selected to travel to New York to work with other contemporary dancers and choreographers. Katie is very excited to work with the young dancers at Live Love Perform and share her love of dance with them.
