Emma Bishop

 

 

Emma has danced since the age of 3 in a local dance school in Allesley Village. She danced in annual shows, as well as performing in community events and competitions. Emma has trained in all forms of dance, but has a particular love for tap.

​

When she was 15, Emma became an assistant teacher, helping to lead dance classes for a variety of ages in many different styles. At 17, she trained as a teaching assistant in a primary school, and went on to work in primary education for over 2 and a half years, continuing to teach dance on weekends.

​

Emma still works with children, but is now a Speech and Language Therapy Assistant for the NHS. She leads therapy sessions with children of all ages and abilities, in mainstream, specialist and pre-schools. She loves her job and feels like she makes a difference in the lives of the children she works with every day.

​

Emma is so excited to be an assistant teacher at Shottery School of Dance, after working and training with Izzy for over 3 years prior to her founding the school. She can't wait to help train the next generation of performers!

​

With over 5 years experience working with children, Emma is fully trained in child protection and safeguarding, and holds both a Level 3 First Aid qualification and an enhanced DBS check.
