Lily Wheeler
Principal
BA (Hons) Musical Theatre
ISTD Diploma in Dance Education in Modern Theatre Dance
I have been involved in dance and theatre arts from the age of 8, taking part in a local performing arts group and dance team. This is where my passion for learning and performing first began.
Teaching various age groups from the age of 16, I took on a principal role running a performing arts site before leaving to pursue a Musical Theatre degree at the University of Winchester, achieving First Class Honours.
Whilst at university, I lead the competitive dance team to winning at inter-university competitions, and found a love for teaching and sparking a passion for dance in others. Upon this, I decided that opening my own school was a dream of mine.
I am delighted to introduce you to Ignite Theatre Arts, and I hope that we are able to spark your very own passion!
