Holly

Holly has been dancing her whole life, starting off at her local dance school, to then go onto professional training at the prestigious Italia Conti Academy in London. Here, she studied musical theatre and dance, giving her the tools to move onto a successful career in performing. Holly has been lucky enough to perform all over the world, with touring companies, on cruise ships, in pantomimes and special events. Since then, Holly’s teaching career has blossomed and she has taught and choreographed as a freelance teacher for many dance schools and companies. She also started training in pole, hoop and silks, using her acrobatics and dance skills to excel quickly. Holly made the exciting move up to Cambridge to join the Wings family in 2020 to offer even more classes and share her knowledge and skills, and help Wings grow and flourish.
