FOUNDER AND BALLET TEACHER
Mrs Caves passion for dancing began at a very young age, and was called ‘merry legs’ within her family! Her first professional job was at ten years old in Snow White, on Liverpools Empire.
After attending the Royal Ballets (JA’s) Junior Associates program in Manchester for one year she began her professional ballet training at eleven years old at White Lodge- The Royal Ballet School in Richmond Park. Here she trained and was taught by the very best in the classical ballet world.
For five years she trained to the highest standard in classical ballet and had many unique opportunities performing on the Royal Opera House and Holland Park annually performing her first solo/duet at eleven years old, in the Royal Ballets Swan Lake on the Royal Opera House. Mrs Cave performed many more times on the ROH & has performed on the Royal Albert Hall, London Coliseum & Holland Park.
After graduating completing five years at White Lodge, she continued her professional training for over two years at Central School of Ballet and developed a love for the neo classical style. She was selected to perform a new work at the Tate Gallery in london amongst many other unique performances. She went on to develop her knowledge & artistry as a dancer, exploring the wonderful world of the arts & performing.
In 2014 she felt a strong calling to share her training in classical ballet with adults solely- creating unique classical ballet classes exclusively for adults of any age, any abilIty and experience! These classes would be carefully developed through her own extensive classical ballet training and professional experiences.
With this vision- In 2014 mrs cave returned to london to study for a Professional Dancers Teachers Diploma (PDTD) at The Royal Academy of Dance. Shortly after graduating at the RAD in London Lady Bay Ballet was born!
