My name is Ellie, I’m 15 years old and I train at Miss Sutcliffe academy of dance and McLaren dance company.

I have been dancing since I was 2 gaining many achievements along the way. Some of my best including; winning CYD? Dancer of the year, attending the Royal Ballet School, being offered a full 3 year scholarship at Laine Theatre Arts and being nominated for the classical award at the prestigious red carpet event the ‘le classique awards’. I have taken all my graded exams in RAD ballet and ISTD modern, tap and jazz gaining the highest distinctions in all where I also received 100% twice. I have also competed in various competitions with my biggest wins being TDCI champion of champions in both junior ballet and modern, Acro world champion at the Dance World Cup, 2nd place world ballet champion and a British gymnastics champion.

I love taking classes with new teachers and learning from the best. Im always left feeling so inspired after CYD? days and I’m so honoured and excited to be a dance star this year.
