About Alex

IT ALL STARTED WHEN…

Having been inspired to dance from watching the cult classic film Billy Elliot, I began my training  at Dance Direction UK under the direction of Debby Tomlinson and Meryl Moreth; before moving on to study at  Tring Park School for the Performing Arts and Central School of Ballet (graduating in 2019). Whilst in my second year at Central, through the Archie Lloyd Foundation I was fortunate enough to have been selected as a Student Associate in 2018/19 for Sir Matthew Bourne’s Swan Lake season(the production featured at the end of film). In addition to touring the UK with Ballet Central (3rd year student company of Central) I subsequently joined the New Adventures Company full time, creating the original role of  Lennox in Romeo and Juliet. Currently I am working with Cassa Pancho’s Ballet Black as an Apprentice Artist, having joined in 2019. 

Through the generous grants and support provided by teamArchie, I have been exposed to so many amazing professional opportunities and experiences; all of which played a huge part in shaping my current and future career. Dancing with New Adventure in both Romeo and Juliet and especially Swan Lake has been some of the most surreal and momentous highlights of my dance career so far and I am forever grateful to teamArchie for making this possible.
