We have had a few bookings coming in for our upcoming workshop with Trisha. Please get in touch if you would like to attend. For those who are not familiar with Trisha here is a bit more of her bio
Trisha is a UK based artist, educator, and creative director with decades of experience teaching and working internationally. She brings a deeply personal, culturally informed approach to dance, grounded in Black traditions, musicality, and lived social history. She has taught since the late 1990s and has been active internationally for over two decades. Her work reflects a long-standing commitment to cultural integrity, artistic depth, and meaningful learning experiences.
Her practice centres on authenticity, connection, and immersion. Trisha invites dancers to move beyond patterns and sequences into meaning, encouraging an embodied understanding of where movement comes from, how it feels, and why it matters. Drawing on the shared roots of African American vernacular dances, she supports dancers in engaging with rhythm, groove, individuality, and community as integral elements of the dance, rather than as additions to it.
Known for her engaging and inclusive teaching style, Trisha creates spaces that are both energetic and joyful, yet thoughtful and intentional. Her classes balance clarity with creativity, supporting students while encouraging them to explore their own expressive voice. She has a particular strength in communicating complex ideas in accessible ways, helping dancers build confidence, musical awareness, and a deeper relationship with movement.
Trisha’s work is underpinned by a strong musical foundation and extensive movement training. With a background in music and formal training in ballet, jazz, contemporary, and tap, rhythm lies at the heart of her teaching. This enables students to develop a nuanced understanding of timing, improvisation, and embodied musicality, supporting dance that feels grounded, responsive, and alive.
Alongside teaching, Trisha works as a creative director, choreographer, and performer, with many years of experience shaping performances, learning environments, and artistic projects. Her international work spans the UK and Europe, where she continues to teach, perform, and collaborate with diverse communities and organisations.
