Lizzie Hilleard

Having started dance at 3 years old, I have been dancing for over 18 years. I was trained predominately in ISTD Ballet, Tap and Modern, completing all grades up to Intermediate.

Furthering my dance training, I joined a dance company called Carpe Diem at 12 years old, where I trained in Ballet, Contemporary and Hip-Hop. Whilst at Carpe Diem I performed in renditions of The Nutcracker, Copellia, and Lord of the Flies. We also participated in various hip-hop competitions, expanding my experience in the dance genre further.

At 15 I was selected to join the English Youth Ballet. A year later I performed in Giselle with the company, which was one of the biggest ballet shows I had ever done.

At 16 years old I was offered a place at The BRIT School of Performing Arts completing a Level 3 Extended Diploma in Dance, where I achieved a Triple Distinction *. I have also worked professionally in the Dance Industry, with one of my credits including performing at The BRIT Awards 2017 behind Little Mix, as well as teaching ballet at local dance schools.
