The Faculty - Stephanie Haighton

My journey started here at Northern Dance Centre at the age of three where I trained with Amy right through till the age of 18. I then went on to Centre Pointe Vocational College in Manchester, where I graduated as a qualified ISTD teacher in ballet, tap and modern, alongside obtaining a Diploma in Professional Dance & Musical Theatre. After graduating I spent 3 years in Paris performing professionally, firstly performing for Disneyland Paris and then touring Paris and Switzerland with a cabaret company. Since returning to the UK I have been teaching many different styles of dance at NDC and at Primary & Secondary schools across Yorkshire. I took over the Tiny Acorns pre-school dance classes at NDC in 2018 and these classes are rapidly expanding.
