Karen has nurtured a lifelong passion for dance and movement. Her journey in dance led her to train at the London College of Dance and Drama, where she graduated with teaching qualifications accredited by the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD).

Karen has taught many ballet classes for adults at Dance Theatre of Ireland. She has prepared adults for RAD exams (Discovering Repertoire, Intermediate, grades 6-8) Karen brings a wealth of experience to every class she teaches.

Whether you're a beginner or an experienced dancer, her classes are designed to inspire confidence, improve technique, and foster a love for movement and dance.

Karen is delighted to introduce Silver Swans and RAD classes to The Loft Dance Studio! Specially designed for older learners, Silver Swans ballet classes are gentle and full of joy. Whether you're returning to dance or trying it for the first time, these classes promote grace, posture, flexibility, and wellbeing—all in a welcoming and supportive environment.

RAD classes will be kicking off in September with Discovering Repertoire. This class is for those who are improvers and have a good understanding of ballet technique.
