Miss Lucy’s teaching philosophy, “I strive to create an engaging and respectful space where every student feels empowered to reach their full potential, both as dancers and as individuals. Dance is more than movement. It is an art form that fosters expression, appreciation and lifelong wellbeing. I aim to cultivate an environment where students not only develop technical skill, but gain confidence, discipline and a deep connection to the joy of movement.”
