Sally began dancing at the age of four and fell in love with it straight away! She appeared in several shows as a child and competed in dance competitions, gaining numerous medals and trophies.

After appearing in the Damuus Dance Company for two years, Sally juggled her University education with dance training to gain her teaching qualification with the International Dance Teachers' Association. She then taught at the Joan Ward School of Dance in Lancaster, teaching all ages.

Having returned to Leeds, Sally has taught at Elev8 Dance Academy in Calverley, but now dedicates her time to Danceology. Sally continues to develop her knowledge in the teaching of dance and is currently training for further qualifications.

Kay started her dance career at the age of four, just as little sister Sally was entering the world! As a youngster, she regularly entered into local dance festivals and competitions and performed in shows and pantomimes.

Her love of performance has been a major factor in Kay's continued involvement in dance - she caught 'the bug' at fifteen in her first amateur show at Leeds Grand Theatre, and was an original member of the Damuus Dance company with whom she performed for four years.

Kay took her teaching qualification at just eighteen, before pursuing an academic career at Leicester University. In her spare time as a student, Kay founded a Tap Dance Society where she taught classes each week and was also Chairman of the Modern Dance Society.

Kay has also directed and choreographed a musical and choreographed a charity fashion show. She is currently on the committee of Harrogate St Andrew's Players and can regularly be seen in leading roles in their shows.

Jacqueline’s theatre training began when she was sent to dance classes aged 4; her Mum complaining that she wouldn’t sit still! As a child she performed in a number of pantomimes and musicals and was an original member of Damuus Dance Company along with her sister-in-law Kay!

She carried out her professional training at London Studio Centre where she gained an honours degree in Musical Theatre with distinction in singing. She went on to work successfully in theatre in London and overseas shows.

In 2002 Jacqueline decided to move back to Leeds to focus on her studies of the voice and her ambition to teach. She continues to perform regularly and can be seen on stage in Harrogate and Leeds.
