the mckillen school of dance
The McKillen School of Dance was established in 2017, aiming to be the most
trusted provider in delivering dance, drama and singing education. Creating a
safe and nurturing environment for both children who want to dance as a hobby
and those who want a career from it. TMSOD believes that when we stop learning,
we stop growing. This is why we dedicate a minimum of 15 hours a year to staff
development and education. This ensures our teachers are equiped with the best
knowledge and facilities possible to teach our pupils at the highest standard
possible. I have loved dance all of my life, competing and sitting exams. As a
dancer, I have had many experiences - to name a few; MOVEIT Main Stage, MOVEIT
class assistant, Got to Dance auditions,, Scottish Ballet assistant with Hansel
and Gretel performance Belfast 2017, Dance World Cup Dancer. As a teacher - I am
currently I am fully qualified with the Royal Academy of Dance, ISTD
Contemporary, Acrobatic Arts, DDMIX, iDance Contemporary, Progressing Ballet
Technique and the Associated Board of Dance. While teaching full time I am also
studying for another two teaching qualifications to add to the studio. In the
first year of opening the school, my dancers auditioned with my choreography and
where on Team Northern Ireland 2018 for the Dance World Cup. Currently I have
pupils in associate and training programmes in both Scotland and Northern
Ireland.
