We are VOX Dance
Nichola Reynolds M.B.A.T.D.
Director / Founder
Nichola has taught dance, drama, and vocals for over 20 years and is a fully qualified registered teacher of dance with the British Association of Teachers of Dancing. After training in the arts from the age of 5, and competing successfully around the country, including All England Finals and Miss Dance of Great Britain, Nichola went on to work professionally in the industry before going on to take her teaching qualifications with The British Association of Teachers of Dancing.
Nichola’s previous experience ranges from performing as a dancer, dance captain and choreographer of theatre tours around the UK, as well as working in TV and performing as a singer with both corporate and original bands around the world. Her love of dance and performing led her to teach in Australia before returning to the UK working in and managing dance studios, as well as providing services within primary and secondary school education.
VOX Dance Studios is all about creating a space and training centre for students who want to both dance for fun and/or receive the training they need to go on to have a professional career in the Performing Arts Industry. It is a place where students can come to grow in confidence, learn skills both in dance and life, as well as know they can dream big and explore those aspirations with us.
