Gail Marsden: Principal
B.Phil. (Hons),
LRAD, ARAD, AISTD Modern Dip, AISTD Tap, AISTD National
 I grew up in Halifax and went on to train
at The Royal Academy of Dance specialising in Classical Ballet. Over
the next ten years I danced professionally both in the UK and abroad. I
have danced on many high profile TV shows including 321 and Children
in Need, and have had walk on parts in plays and films such as Emmerdale,
Edge of Darkness, On the Shelf and The Glory Boys with
Anthony Perkins and Rod Steiger. I have also appeared in
local and national TV advertising. I danced professionally for Ray Cornell
on prestigious cruise lines as 'Dance Captain'.
Further accomplishments include forming and performing with my own dance
group Dance Arena throughout the United Kingdom and Scandanavia and
Mediterranean Cruises.
More recently, I have choreographed and danced in the popular Great
Ledgends of Rock which included artistes from TV's Stars in Their
Eyes such as Elton John, Shirley Bassey, Cher, Rod
Stewart, Sedaka, Elvis, Neil Diamond and Cliff!
Although I still maintain my connections with the professional dance world,
I have since concentrated totally on the teaching side. I have worked and
still work in a freelance capacity although I run my own school.
I pride myself in knowing that I have consistently maintained a 100% pass
rate in all students and student teacher examinations.
I would be delighted to be contacted by parents
about their children's dance needs (and adults) about their interest in
dance and the performing arts.
