Instructor Q&A - Get to know Chloe

Chloe teaches online Ballet Fusion classes and is almost as famous as her pet sausage dog Bella ;) Beauty & brains in equal amounts - read on to find out how Chloe keeps both in such amazing shape.

Where do you live?

Exeter, Devon 


When did you first start dancing?

When I was 3, typically baby ballet!


Who is your favourite / most inspirational dancer?

I’ve never really thought about it!! I love male ballet dancers and allegro is my absolute favourite, so maybe Carlos Acosta!


Which is your favourite style of dance?

Ballet!

Which is your favourite Ballet Fusion class to teach?

I love teaching Sunday Stretch because it’s the perfect start to my Sunday - but i do also love strength and conditioning!


Do you have a favourite ballet?

I don’t really - maybe Giselle, I think the story is easy to follow for a ballet and its dramatic - which I love! Also love Don Quixote though... With Carlos of course.

What other exercise do you do?

Olympic weightlifting! 


What’s a skill you would like to learn?

Handstands (again - I learned in lockdown 1, but apparently you lose skills you don’t practice!) Also seaking Spanish - I have been learning for over two years now and am still too scared to try and talk to anyone in Spanish!!

Tell us something people might not know about you

I came 5th at the English Nationals Weightlifting last year, and I am studying a Masters in Strength and Conditioning 

What’s your favourite movie?

So difficult… Matilda is my favourite childhood movie. Friends is my favourite series to re-watch... Although that isn’t a film!


Favourite food?

My mum’s lasagna, any pasta… or chips, I LOVE chips... a lot

Where would your dream holiday be?

I would love to see the northern lights! 

What is your spirit animal?

My dog Bella, we have very similar personalities haha.

What should we watch / what are you watching now on tv?

Ginny and Georgia, so addictive I've binge watched it all.
