Arpino Academy of Dancing is operated by Charlotte Arpino. Charlotte had a love of dancing since she was a toddler and later went on to take ballet, tap and modern classes at the Gwyneth Hare School of Dancing in Manchester. At 16 Charlotte commenced her professional dance training at Preston College on the Professional Dancers and Teachers of Dance course. Charlotte gained teaching qualifications with the Royal Academy of Dancing and Imperial Society Teachers of Dancing. After leaving college Charlotte went on to become a freelance teacher working at a number of schools in the North West. In 2008 Charlotte returned from Barbados where she gained her yoga teacher qualification. On returning to the U.K. Charlotte has turned her attention to opening her own dance school and has been hard at work ever since!
