She has been a guest lecturer at London Contemporary Dance School since 2020 and she has been working with Scarabeus Aerial Theatre Company.

Becky's class
will begin with a yoga warm-up with some stretching and conditioning exercises. Rooted in floor work techniques with a heavy influence of Capoeira, Becky’s class will consist of exercises, crossings and improvisations which explore flow, momentum and musicality. We will gradually take more risk, build towards bearing more weight on our arms and move in and out of the floor with speed.
