Dawns Bio

I started dancing at the age of eight at the Benwells Dance studio in Birmingham. I met my dance partner and husband to be at this studio when I was fourteen and then we pursued our career down the competitive road. We performed on the BBC Come Dancing programme; representing the Midlands in the Latin American section, which we won for three consecutive years. We also represented Great Britain throughout Europe and were finalists in all major British and International championships; becoming fourth in the world.

In the mid eighties we accepted a contract on the high seas and a six month contract ended up being for twelve years. We were fortunate to perform on some of the most prestigious cruise ships around. During this time we built up a repertoire of twenty eight routines, including the standard Latin, Ballroom and cabaret.

 

In 1996 my partner and I decided to hang up our dance shoes, this was when I decided to set up Dawn's Dance with Style.
