She is Principal of her own school, where she teaches RAD Ballet, Street Jazz, and Contemporary Dance, and prepares students for RAD examinations. She also works extensively within schools and outreach programmes, including Dartmoor Multi Academy Trust, Okehampton Community & Recreation Association (OCRA), and co-founded the Okehampton Community Dance Project, providing inclusive and accessible dance opportunities for young people. Her teaching is rooted in creativity, musicality, and strong technical foundations, with a focus on building confidence and expression in every dancer. Alongside her teaching, Ellodie has a strong performance background, including work with Vienna Festival Ballet and the Rambert School Company. She continues to develop her practice through ongoing CPD with One Dance UK and specialist training in choreography, inclusive dance, and dance for health. Ellodie is passionate about making dance accessible to all and believes in “passion before perfection,” which underpins her teaching approach. Ellodie is excited to be joining Louisa Hockin School of Performing Arts Summer School, where she looks forward to sharing her experience, inspiring young dancers, and supporting them to grow in confidence, creativity, and technique.
