For a profile on Kate, please visit Kate's profile page, or visit Kate's Biography Page to read her biography.

An experienced performer, choreographer, dancer and workshop leader, Kate is renowned in the UK for her work in the community; running events and participating in carnivals, festivals, after-school clubs and summer camps. She thrives on the ability to make a difference in the lives of those she works with, especially children with special needs and learning disabilities.

Kate's love of the martial art of poi spinning, motivated her to start Poi Passion, instigated whilst traveling in Israel, teaching tourists during the day and performing for local nightclubs and hotels by night. On returning to the UK, Kate quickly established a host of workshops and has now trained over 10,000 children and adults to help master this art.

In 2006, her community spirited nature led her to start a fundraising campaign for Radio Reverb, a Brighton based community radio station. She then founded and hosted The Global Dance Show for over 2 years, interviewing a multitude of dancers from all disciplines and inspiring many to start moving to their own rhythm.
