Supporting each other is essential for continued growth.

We all need a trusted team of experts, friends and brands to keep us dancing and living to our fullest potential.

Here are just a few who have been instrumental in my career.

Ross J Barr Acupuncture

I’ve known Ross for 10 years and he’s my go-to therapist for both physical and emotional restoration and nourishment. His knowledge of his craft as well as his welcoming approach makes him the favourite of many celebrities and even royalty! A treatment from him is never short of miraculous.

GatorTail Foam Roller

Something a dancer is never without is a foam roller and having tried nearly every one out there, GatorTail foam roller is by far the best I've come across. It’s designed to give you the ultimate pressure point massage as well as being a handy piece of exercise equipment. Stylish and not scary looking!

Bethany Kingsley-Garner for Move Dance Wear

Bethany and I trained and grew up together at the Royal Ballet School and have co-hosted many adult ballet master classes together. As a principal ballerina with Scottish Ballet this collection of beautiful leotards and warm up clothes are inspired by Beth’s exciting and highly successful career so far.

HME Bone Setting and Dissolve Therapy

Bone setting (Qi) is a profound method of correcting injuries and damage in the body’s structure. After nearly 15 years of pain and restricted movement in my back after a serious injury, father and son duo Andy and Duran Mack were able to bring my spine back to life and moving pain free after just one session.

Portable ballet barres from The Barre

I have trusted The Barre to supply and ship portable ballet barres for me across the world for my ballet retreats, and they were of course the first guys I turned to when lockdown hit and I needed to set up a Home Studio. Now I teach and film all my online classes with the help of these top quality, reliable and discreet portable ballet barres!
