New Teacher At ADS - Sian Eleri Jones.

Welcome to Ms Sian Eleri Jones (ISTC, BSc, MA).

Siân’s early childhood training began in local dance schools within Swansea, where she had opportunity to perform regularly. At 16, she then went on to train professionally at Laine Theatre Arts where she gained her advanced dance certificates, her National Diploma in Dance and Performing Arts as well as her ISTD Ballet Teaching Associate.

For over 10 years she worked professionally; starting out onboard Costa cruise lines, before returning to London to work within the commercial fashion and trade industry where she worked for prestigious brands and artists such as Geri Halliwell, Wella, PlayStation, Reebok, Nike, Nissan, SAGA, and Combined Services Entertainment.

As well as dance, Siân was fortunate to explore several domains within the performance arena; for example, the film and television industry where she worked as a lead artist in commercials and editorials, and as a body double and stand-in artist on several Working Title films.

During her time as a dancer she also worked as a choreographer, and assistant choreographer, again for prestigious brands such as Vidal Sassoon and HSBC. She also taught a range of dance styles to children and adults. After retiring from dance Siân pursued post graduate qualifications in Anthropology and Education, and has since been teaching at universities. Returning to dance after a short break, Siân realised that dance was an indispensable part of her life and she has since sought opportunities to dance, move and preform in several settings.

She is now excited to draw on her passions and skills as an educator and to bring these together with her experience and knowledge within the studio to nurture creativity, confidence, quality, and most importantly fun for her students.
