Get to Know Me
Hey, my name is Jess. My dance journey started at the age of 3 when I begged my Mum for ballerina lessons, this is where my love for dance and movement started.
​
I trained in Ballet and Modern up to advanced standard and during my time at secondary school found Contemporary Dance. I continued down this path, completing my professional dance training gaining a 1st class BA(Hons) from the conservatoire for dance and drama - London Contemporary Dance School.
​
After I graduated I started teaching all ages from 18months- Adults and I have loved every second. I have therefore decided to take the leap or should I say grand jeté and start BalletBees and JCDance in Brighton and Hove. I look forward to dancing with you soon.
During my dance training training I found yoga and could feel all of the benefits it has on the body and mind. During 2023 I became a yoga teacher completing my 200hrs Yoga teacher training. Yoga is all for you, your personal journey and development. I can't wait to share this beautiful practice with you.
