| Mrs Janet Marshall |
 |
|
Janet Marshall started her career in dance with a Royal Academy of Dance scholarship and furthered her training with a diploma from the Ballet Rambert.
Janet worked in the professional theatre both in London and the provinces for a number of years before founding her own dance school in Cheltenham. This has grown over the years with many branch schools which deliver dance to an extremely wide area surrounding Cheltenham. Cheltenham Ladies College, Dean Close School and St Edwards School all now have dance presented by Janet and her team.
Janet is the area organiser of the I.S.T.D. Cotswold region and has been a major examiner for many years in Ballet, Modern Theatre and Tap both in the U.K. and Internationally.
Many of her former pupils are now working in all corners of the world as professional dancers, as teachers and examiners.
Most recently she has been elected to the Ballet Committee of the Imperial Society. |
