About Charlotte

24 years of tap experience.
Passed all BBO (British Ballet Organisation) grades with distinction.
Full marks in Advanced Inter-performance grades 1 & 2.
Competed in festivals for 11 years.
2015: 2nd place at the All England, Bloomsbury Theatre, London.
2018: National champion at the All England, Hackney Empire, London.

Tap is an incredible art form that I have found transformative, both through the act of learning and teaching. One of my biggest inspirations was my tap teacher Jurek Sroka, who taught me tap since the age of three. I grew in confidence the more I learnt, and through competing I built my own unique take on tap performance and what I wanted that to look like. I completed my last national competition in 2018 winning the All England Tap Dance Finals at Hackney Empire, London.
Now I also get the privilege of teaching others, aiming to pass on my unique style, passion & joy for this art form. If you've always wanted try tap dance - even if it's not with me - please GO FOR IT! It's like nothing else.

About the lesson

Wherever you're at in life, all you need in my lessons are a pair of taps, and a passion to learn. If you have these things, then I can't wait to dance with you!

Training lessons will be adapted to each student and what they're looking for. I am currently available to teach 1:1 during evenings & weekends. I teach all levels! I can also support audition routines/ create choreography etc. In person classes are conducted at my home in SW London. If you require a studio, travel to your house or group bookings, please mention when you get in touch & we can discuss the fee for this.

We will assess where you are at through an initial consultation over a call. An ideal way for us to discuss what you would like to gain from our sessions and answer any questions.

General overview: We will work together on the foundations of tap with thorough explanations on technique and approach throughout. We will build our confidence in technique through drills, choreography and variations. Tap is an excellent skill for working on muscle memory. You are welcome to film any of our sessions for you to practise outside. I will work and build on your rhythm, musicality, light & shade, memory, fitness, confidence and most importantly, your unique performance style. We will practise call and response ('having a conversation') and improvisation to music. I play with different choreographic styles for my students, exploring tap through tango, waltz, boogie woogie, lyrical, jazz and more. We can be inspired by music and different stimuli to figure out what you feel passionate about when dancing to ultimately build your own style.

Not to sound like Mary Poppins... but the aim is that I will not need to teach you forever. I will give you the tools and inspiration to continue on your own when the time's right. I hope to build a community of tap dancers so we may all dance together one day!

Perfect! Charlotte has been so much more than just a tap teacher to me—she’s been my biggest supporter, cheerleader, and motivator throughout this entire process. When I resumed tap to prepare for my pageant routine in just six weeks, I hadn’t danced in two years. Honestly, her clear explanations, attention to detail, and ability to adjust choreography to my skill level made all the rust disappear.

There was a point where I felt completely demotivated—not because of my tap sessions, but from the stress of being pulled in so many directions. Charlotte was the one who grounded me and reminded me why I was doing this, encouraging me to keep putting in the effort and commitment.

What makes her even more incredible is that her support doesn’t stop when class ends. She went above and beyond, sending me videos of herself performing the choreography both at full speed and slowed down, taking extra time out of her day to make sure I felt confident.

Charlotte is the reason I’ve fallen back in love with tap. Before working with her, tap was tied to such a difficult time in my life that I never wanted to revisit it. Now, I never want to let it go again!

Charlotte's response
I have had a lot of fun creating & teaching a routine for Aisha's upcoming pageant. Given that Aisha has had a break from tap, she is picking this up at a rapid speed! Aisha - I have loved being around your confidence and positive can do attitude. This is beneficial when learning any new skill, particularly when there is a deadline in place! Keep going as it is a real asset to your personality and will benefit you in all areas of life. Each student gives me an opportunity to learn as well, and I am grateful to have our classes each week - keep it up Aisha! I am rooting for you!

Perfect! Charlotte has been brilliant in teaching me tap online! She explains steps and rhythms clearly and engagingly, and I often understand concepts in a single lesson that would normally take me weeks to grasp in a group class. As someone who started tap dance as an adult, I've come a long way from feeling very underconfident and unable to progress, to starting intermediate classes in the past year.

Charlotte not only reassures me when I feel unsure but also breaks things down in detail and gives practical tips to improve. There have been times when I thought I couldn’t do something because no one had explained the whole step clearly - only to realise I was actually on the right track, with Charlotte guiding me through it.

She also creates unique tap combinations tailored to what I want to focus on, adding fun and creativity beyond an exam syllabus. She’s happy to film herself doing the combinations so I can revisit them whenever, which has been incredibly helpful for practice.

Thanks to her patience, encouragement, and tailored approach, I’ve progressed far beyond what I ever expected and genuinely enjoy every lesson. Learning with Charlotte has made tap dance a rewarding and enjoyable part of my life.

Aaron was great fun to teach! I am excited to see how he builds on his tap to compliment his many other skills for performance. Aaron, you have a natural sense of timing and rhythm that you can 100% trust. I look forward to teaching you again when you're in London!

Charlotte's response
David is a learning at a great speed and his commitment to learning tap is a real asset. David came to me as a beginner who began learning tap from online videos before beginning in person classes together. It's been wonderful to see his technique improve, and he clearly has a natural affinity to tap through the way he picks things up. It's been great fun and I look forward to teaching him each week. Well done David! He has natural rhythm but we are now beginning to really challenge his musicality through fundamental techniques and variations.

Perfect! Charlotte has an exceptional knack for breaking down complicated steps, picking up on nuanced improvements (like hip/toe/heel placement, rhythm, weight shifting), and above all, a wonderful, sunny attitude! And all over Zoom to boot! She asked useful and insightful questions about my current level, my goals, and what would make class most fun. Totally recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Fantastic work with Stephan, so exciting to teach someone who has already done so many different styles and now wants to dip into tap. He picked up the steps very quickly and asked lots of questions and made my job very fun. We want to work on those pick steps, but overall lovely loose ankles and knees which are so integral to the work. Keep practising Stephan, you were great and can only get better!

Charlotte’s incredibly high-level of technical ability shines through as she communicates and teaches complex techniques via simple step-by-step processes. Charlotte is very understanding of the mental battle that can sometimes be involved with learning difficult steps and routines and does well to make classes thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing for those of us less confident/ experienced in dancing!

I bought a tap lesson for my mum from Charlotte, and she was an absolute delight. She was knowledgeable, cooperative, and tailored the session to my mum's limited experience. We were both very impressed, and in awe of her technique, teaching and character!

I was lucky enough to be taught tap by Charlotte recently. Her warm, friendly personality matched with her considerate and dedicated teaching style makes for an excellent class. Would really recommend Charlotte for both beginners or those who have a little more experience and want to hone their craft. Have booked more sessions in and plan to do so regularly.

Charlotte has danced from the age of 3 years and through commitment and determination she has worked through all of her tap grades with amazing results. Her last competition she won the award for the All England Tap Dancer of the year in 2017 at the Hackney Empire London. During lockdown she taught me how to tap dance. She was always patient and we had some fantastic giggles along the way when my feet didn’t seem to do want I wanted them to but we got there in the end. If you want to learn how to tap dance, do a dance workout or if it’s just a bit of fun, Charlotte will make you feel special. She is at her happiest when she is dancing so why not come and join her. With her bubbly enthusiasm and infectious laugh, I’m sure you will love every minute of your lesson.
