Miss Molly

Molly has been dancing for as long as she can remember; all the way up from baby ballet to A Level Dance.
As well as dancing herself, she have taught a range of dance classes for 3-4 years consisting of many different primary schools, secondary school clubs, solo classes and much more!
If Molly had to pick one, her favourite dance discipline is Jazz but she loves performing a range of styles such as Musical Theatre, Tap, Ballet, Commercial and Contemporary.
Molly's biggest piece of advice to any young performer would be to show your enthusiasm and excitement for dance through your face with a big, beaming smile!
Being able to teach and pass on her passion for dance to younger performers is amazing.
