Testimonials

'I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for Cara. She believed in me, guided me and pushed me to the best of my ability. Thank you for helping shape me into the dancer I am today. I'll always be grateful.’

— Charlotte Tonkinson, First Artist of the Royal Ballet

‘Cara was one of my very first ballet teachers and she inspired my love of ballet. She is the most kind and thoughtful teacher and person and any student would be lucky to train with her. I'm now a dancer with the Royal Ballet and I wouldn't be where I am today without her.’

— Scarlett Harvey, Artist of the Royal Ballet

‘There are very few teachers I can think of across my whole life who are as inspirational as Cara.’

— Jonathan Drummond, Northern Ballet pianist


Cara is such a caring and inspiring teacher. Her infectious energy and passion always kept me engaged and motivated to work hard and I don’t think I would’ve made it as a professional without her.

— Tim Dutson, now performing with Staatsballett Berlin
