ABOUT ANNA (she/her)

ANNA MORGAN F.I.S.T.D. A.R.A.D.

Anna trained at the Deborah Capon College, and was also heavily influenced by her time training and working in America. She was represented by Terpsichore Entertainment in New York and worked within theatre and television. Following this she became the company's UK talent representative, responsible for identifying and guiding talented artists seeking legal employment and representation in the USA.

 

Anna went on to train as a teacher, running her own school, the Hasland Dance Studios, for 6 years, achieving her Licentiate and Fellowship qualifications with the ISTD, and becoming a mutually recognised teacher with the Royal Academy of Dance. In 2015 she became an Approved Tutor for the ISTD and created Anna Morgan Dance, offering bespoke teacher training for the Diploma in Dance Education qualification.

 

Anna spent a number of years on the Ballet faculty at Performers College before joining Bird College as a Ballet Tutor in 2016, and is also the staff representative to the Board of Directors at Bird College. In 2021 Anna joined the teacher training faculty of the Royal Ballet School to deliver their 'Inspire' teacher training seminars in the UK and internationally. Anna is also an adjudicator for the British and International Federation of Festivals, and is on the Advisory Board for the TIRED Movement (Trying to Improve Racial Equality in Dance)

 

Before the pandemic Anna pursued teaching and choreography throughout the UK and America, including

choreographing two original works for Bailar Al Sol in New Jersey. Alongside American Company 'United We Dance'

Anna is currently involved in pre-production of an original Contemporary Ballet to be performed by a brand new,

international company once travel restrictions permanently ease.

 

When the pandemic hit, Anna pivoted to create online options for her DDE courses, now allowing teachers to have the choice between in-studio or online learning.
