My name is Maddie and I am 11 years old. I am excited to be a CYD? Dance Star for the 3rd year and can’t wait to meet the other stars.

A little about me… I attend Starlight Dance Academy and Stagebox. I am a Royal Ballet JA, Elmhurst Young Dancer and Tring Park Associate. I am currently playing the lead role Matilda in Matilda the U.K. and Ireland tour. It really is a dream come true and such an honour to play one of the most incredible roles in theatre.

I have won many titles with my solos including TDCI British Ballet Champion, Global Ballet and Lyrical Champion, Dance World Cup Ballet and Acro Champion, All England Ballet, Modern, Tap, Character and Musical Theatre Champion. In 2025 I was awarded ‘Rising Star’ from the Global Dance Open competition.

I absolutely love to dance and perform and I can wait to see what CYD? has in store this year.
