Natalie White - Owner/Principal

I started Ballet at the age of four, which also led me to tap, modern and jazz. Since then, I have successfully competed in various regional competitions and participated in many live shows in the Bristol and surrounding area for both dance and classical singing.
I have a lot of happy memories of this time in my life, which has helped me recognise the importance of dance school in developing my personal confidence and dancing skills.

 After leaving school, I attended Bristol College of Dance. I was able to enhance my technical and practical ability, and gained my DDE qualifications in Ballet, Tap & Modern. This experience helped me expand my understanding of choreography and performance and provided the foundations of my ambitions to become a dance teacher, and one day own my own dance school.

With the confidence and skill gained in dance school, I made it to the final ten for the BBC Andrew Lloyd Webber’s, Somewhere over the Rainbow in 2010. This was an incredible experience and helped me understand the process from the perspective of the professionals. 
At the age of 18, I joined Justine Garner School of Dance, and after five years I was asked to take the role of ‘Dance Director’.
​ Later, in July 2016, I was thrilled to be given the opportunity to take over the school.  I have always believed that hard work, determination and resilience are the cornerstones for successful teaching, and I am now pleased to pass on my training, experience and education to all my pupils at Natalie White’s School of Dance.

Ella Pratten - Dance Teacher

I started dancing at 3 years old with Stapleton School of Dancing in Bristol where I studied RAD Ballet and ISTD Tap and Modern gaining graded and major examinations in all three disciplines.
During this time I also competed in numerous dance festivals where I competed at the All England National Finals where I placed 1st with my Irish Solo.

I then went onto study for 3 years at Morea Performing Arts, where I gained performance experience as well as improving my technique and gaining some teaching qualifications.

​Since graduating in July 2018, I have now gone on to become a full time dance teacher. I am currently finishing off my teaching qualifications at the Dance Station in Bristol.
