In this interview, studio owner and Acrobatic Arts Master Teacher Cheryl Crawford discusses her own highs and lows on the journey of starting an acro program.

About Cheryl Crawford
Started dancing at the age of 5 taking ballet & tap lessons at the local Town Hall, by the age of 10 years I loved everything about dance.
Trained for 3 years at the Theatre School of dance & drama, Edinburgh where I studied RAD Ballet, I.S.T.D Tap & Modern, Jazz, Contemporary, singing & Acting.
I loved every minute of it and graduated with my RAD Registered teacher status in 1999.
Although I loved performing my biggest passion was teaching so in 2001 I set up my own school, 8 months after having my first child, needless to say, my hands were full!
16 years (and another child later) later I now have my own Dance Studio where we offer Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Cheer, Contemporary and my new favourite Acrobatic Arts.
I am one of the lucky ones that can say I enjoy going to work!
I am honoured to be part of the Acrobatic Arts Staff and look forward to growing with the company.
