Hi, I'm Charlotte!
Aspire has been a huge part of my life since opening the doors in 2011, following my professional training at Phil Winston’s Theatreworks.
I’m passionate about creating a school where dancers feel supported, challenged and excited to see what they can achieve.
I specialise in jazz, ballet and contemporary, and as a Mental Health First Aider, I’m a big believer that looking after our dancers is just as important as developing their skills.
