Connie Bower
Hello! I have just completed my drama degree from Thames Valley University aswell as raising my little boy Malakai, who is now 11 months old. I love being a mum as much as I love to act and so inspiring the theatrical minds of little people is the most rewarding and joyous job to have.
I have performed in a variety of musicals, films, radio shows and plays throughout my training, finishing with playing Prue Sarn in an adaptation by Bryony Lavery of Mary Webb's classic novel Precious Bane and a showcase at the Jermyn Street Theatre in London's West End.
Working with Theatre Tots is my first professional teaching job and I look forward to bringing the magic of theatre to life for all your little ones!
Natalie Blades
Hello, I’m Natalie. I trained in drama and media performance at the University of Salford and The Acting Studio, Manchester. Since graduating in 2000 I have acted in various projects in television, theatre and radio. Television credits include ‘Heartbeat’,’ Emmerdale’,’ Bodies’,’ Holby City’ and ‘The Quest’. I have worked extensively with Hull Truck Theatre, most recently playing three contrasting characters in their 2008/09 comedy Christmas production, ‘A Kick in the Baubles’. I have also done a series of comedy voice overs and jingles for various radio stations and more recently, animated commercials for ’3’ mobile phones.
My two year old son Herbie has inspired me to begin working with young children. I have always loved children but since having my own son I really appreciate how much fun they can be and also how individual they are. Its wonderful to see where their imaginations can take them when they’re given the chance to experiment and come up with ideas.
In my Theatre Tots classes I aim to create a fun environment where children can really let their imaginations and personalities come alive. I look forward to seeing you soon!
Rachelle Bell
Hi, I’m Rachelle! I have been a dance teacher for 8yrs and started dancing when I was 3yrs old.
I trained at Goodman Dance Centre and Liz Burville. I trained in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Modern, Latin, Ballroom, and Disco. I have taken various exams in all areas and also went onto compete in disco dance competitions. I also performed in shows during my time at Liz Burville’s such as Bugsy Malone and Joseph. I stopped competing when I was 15 and then went onto study dance at Miskin Theatre. I was at Miskin Theatre for 2yrs, during my time there I performed in 2-3 shows a year, and we also took one of our shows on tour to France and done workshops for the French students. Once I had finished at Miskin Theatre I then went on to take my teaching exams with the ISTD.
I really love teaching and I have taught for Goodman’s dance school, I trained here then became a teacher and taught disco, latin, and ballroom there for 8yrs. I have also taught for Dance Fusion, ballet and Tap, I also taught in various nurseries for this company.
I am currently teaching for Dance Wise and MBA, Diddi Dance and Theatre Tots.
