Our Principal
Keith (KJ) – Dance Teacher and Principal

He has had the opportunity to audition and appear in TV/Film productions, alongside performing in numerous dance shows and competitions. At eighteen, Keith was awarded a full scholarship to Bird College in London, where he graduated with a National Diploma in Professional Musical Theatre. He has continued to work in the industry as a performer and choreographer, judging dance competitions and leading dance workshops in theatres. Keith holds a Level 5 Teaching Qualification with the British Ballet Organisation (BBO).
Tara – Adult Ballet Teacher (Lechlade)
Tara has spent her life in singing and dancing, training professionally at the Centre Performing Arts College in London. After graduating, she joined the Potters Theatre Company in Norwich before taking her talents to the stage internationally — performing as a singer and dancer with Oceania and Carnival Cruise Lines for over eight years.
Now back in the UK, Tara brings her vibrant energy and deep love of teaching to Elevate Dance School. She’s thrilled to lead the Adult Ballet classes in Lechlade, sharing her passion and experience with every dancer who walks through the door.
Sophie – Guest Teacher
Sophie began her ballet journey at just three years old and soon expanded her repertoire by training in modern and tap dance. She successfully completed ISTD and RAD examinations up to the advanced level and actively participated in competitions, shows, and festivals during her time at dance school.
At 18, Sophie broadened her skills beyond dance by delving into acting and singing, pursuing musical theatre at Chichester University. Her passion led her to further training at Guildford School of Acting, where she graduated in 2023 with a master’s degree in Musical Theatre.
Throughout her training, Sophie performed in acclaimed productions such as Bad Girls and Amelie. She also contributed to ATG Workshops, collaborating on new musical theatre material.
