My love for dance began at 6 years old with ballet classes, where I continued for 13 years and achieved Grade 7. I discovered line dancing through my Mum at 18, initially reluctant to go, but it only took one dance to find the joy in line dancing and in unison with others. I just love that you can go anywhere and join in with people you've never met before as a dancing group.

The first dances I learnt were Zjozzy's Funk, Got to Be Funky, and NIMBY. It's thanks to these fantastic dances that I was drawn into the scene.

As well as dance I found pleasure in music at an early age, achieving a Performance Diploma in piano. Choreography allows me to combine these two passions, analysing the music and finding the best moves for specific rhythms.

I work hard to ensure the dances fit well with the music and the dancer really feels like they are dancing, allowing them to enjoy the music and have a great time! As a newcomer to the choreography scene I'd be hugely appreciative to anybody looking at my dances and over the moon if anyone downloads the stepsheets and teaches them! But essentially I just create them because I love it.

Thanks for being here,
Lucy
