Refining her core skills, April learned her base training at the Jacqueline Couves School of Dance in Essex, training there from the ages of four to 19. At the age of 13, her talent was recognised, and she was invited to attend and audition for a ballet company in London. April studied and danced for the Chou Chou Dance Company and whilst at the company, she performed in Coppélia, Swan Lake and The Nutcracker at acclaimed venues such as the Hackney Empire, National Theatre Covent Garden to name but a few. April teaches modern, jazz, tap and ballet, and dance lessons in schools. Your First Dance also has dance instructors that can teach more specialist lessons such as ballroom, Latin and salsa.” Getty Images www.victoriabeddoesphotography.co.uk Getty Images
