BIO

​

Variety, they say, is the spice of life and during the course of three decades I have acquired a wealth of experience in many facets of health, dance, business and safety; as a dancer, producer, director, choreographer, audio & visual technician, teacher, blogger, podcaster, author, principal of Premier Studios training academy, a sport therapist, a NEBOSH occupational health and safety officer and an artistic director of Arts2u Theatre Company.

 

I enjoy working with individuals, communities and businesses in a creative process to reach a goal, regardless what industry.   

 

My services online are set up for like-minded people to access information to help themselves grow as a 'complete person'.  The Complete You is a process physically, emotionally and mentally that allows people I work with to reach their goal and be accountable in managing their current situation and future.

​
