FORMER DIRECTOR OF THE BIRMINGHAM ROYAL BALLET - SIR DAVID BINTLEY
An incredible chat with INTERNATIONAL CHOREOGRAPHER AND LEGND IN THE BALLET WORLD, SIR DAVID BINTLEY CBE.
Since I left the Birmingham Royal Ballet company rather abruptly, I have at times felt sad, unsure if I would ever find my peace of giving up my dream.
But the journey I'm on now gave me the courage to reach out to this magnificent man.
Sir David Bintley (CBE) has created famous ballets such as still life at the penguin cafe, Hobsons choice, Beauty and the beast, Gallentries, and Carmina Burana. We talked about David's journey, which had so many incredible stories I'd never heard.
It was wonderful to see that passion and drive really do give you that bit extra when it comes to being a successful artist.

S2 EP6 Principal Conductor Paul Murphy
When you're on stage in a performance with a live orchestra, you don't think much beyond the steps and the timing of the choreography. Which is why I chose this remarkable guest, Paul Murphy, to talk through what happens the other side of the curtain.
An incredible chat!

S2 Ep4 AERIALIST AND POLE DANCER - JOOLS
A fan of Cabaret, Aerial or Pole dance? You are going to love this one!
Jools Trained at Central school of Ballet then went on to musicals in the West End such as the Lion King. He then got into Pole dance, very quickly competing and becoming a champion.
Wanting to combine Pole with dance, he entered the world of cabaret as an Aerialist. And my god, he's amazing!!
Jools performs at venues such as Bunga Bunga and the Phoenix Arts Club where I had the pleasure of watching Jools perform. We talk about the incredible performing arts industry from ballet to cabaret, how important it is to strip back when entering a new industry, and how to keep things fresh. We also discuss how important it is to go and watch a show and the benefits of human interaction. Jools also talks about his experience in relationships when a career such as this really does take priority.
He's remarkable, versatile and very inspirational for fellow pro performers and dancers in training of most genres.
Brace yourself, it's a good one!
