 ~ Amanda Parton ~
Amanda started dancing at the tender age of 4, when she enrolled in the local ballet school.
She dabbled in a little jazz and ballroom, and enjoyed it, but soon discovered that her real passion lay in contemporary,
she performed many times in her home town at local events and showcases, and had the chance to attend workshops in London
with the Ballet Rambert, and The London Contemporary Dance Theatre.
After some years on the advertising scene, in London, and Singapore, Amanda returned to her dance background 4 years ago,
when she met Enrique. They became close friends and eventual dance partners. They now perform and teach together.
