Aged six, Bobby began taking Irish Dance classes in his hometown Bristol, England. After an illustrious competitive career, winning 10 World titles with his school, he was recruited to join the cast of Lord of the Dance (2008) where he performed the leading role for 4 years before linking up with the winners of Sky 1's Got To Dance - Prodijig.

In 2013, Bobby was cast as the principal lead in Heartbeat of Home. He was then invited to join the company of Riverdance (2014) as a principal lead dancer. Bobby continued touring worldwide until 2022 leading both shows on and off the stage as Dance Captain and Principal Dancer.
 
My goal is to share my knowledge, experience and love of Irish dance to build a community for future dancers where they can be empowered to reach their full potential.

Australian-born, Natasia began dancing at the age of 3. She trained in all styles with a strong focus on Classical Ballet and Irish Dance. Throughout her dancing career Natasia obtained 7 National Irish dance titles whilst training as a Ballerina with the Australian Ballet School.

Her professional journey started as an original cast member of Heartbeat of Home (2013) before joining Riverdance (2014). Since then, Natasia has performed as a Principal Dancer in both shows on the worlds most prestigious stages, including the West End.

As a qualified RAD ballet teacher, Natasia combined her extensive training, professional experience and Pilates accreditation to create her own dance inspired fitness company 'Barre Motion'. She coaches dancers online, worldwide to reach their dancer goals.
