Off Broadway Dance
Real women, real movement, Real magic!
Eleanor- OBD member
"I dance at OBD because it brings out a confidence I didn't know I had. It makes me feel like I'm stepping into my real self- a freer, better version of me, the person I was always meant to be"
Cheryl - OBD member.
"I need a safe space to unwind and de stress from my role as a carer. Off Broadway Dance offers me this space. I have found the place where I can be myself. My concern for my hidden disability is a thing of the past. Thank you Lisa for your FABULOUS company, I'm so glad I FOUND YOU"
Amanda- OBD member
"Dancing at OBD has given me a new understanding and appreciation of my body and everything it has given and keeps on giving me. I dance at OBD because they are the most wonderful group of women, who not only support me but make me see an incredible version of myself that I'm not sure I've seen before"

Founder of 'The Soul Space'
I'm the proud founder and director of Off Broadway Dance; an all inclusive dance company built on the belief that movement is for EVERY BODY!
With over 20 years of experience in the performance industry, working on both the West End and Broadway stages, I've redirected my energy and passion into building something deeply meaningful within the community back in my home town.
My soul's mission is to create a beautiful, safe and empowering space where women can reconnect with themselves through dance, creativity and connected sisterhood. One of the highlights of our year is our spectacular annual showcase - a celebration of everything we've created together throughout the year. Giving every woman a moment to shine their light and be part of something magical!
