Leighanne studied dance in Inchicore College where she obtained qualifications from the ISTD, NCEF and FETAC. It was here she found her passion for contemporary dance. There was no question she always wanted to teach and so it was natural after college to begin her career and start to share her passion for dance. She finds it inspirational as a teacher to watch students constantly challenge and push themselves to the max and be open minded. In her class she always aspires to help students grow in confidence, reach their full potential and be the very best version of themselves. Not to mention have a lot of laughs along the way! She is looking forward to working with the Jill O’Neill School of Dance and meeting all the beautiful dancers.
