Elevate Arts was founded in November 2015 by Lucy Loughlin.
Lucy’s training background is predominantly street dance based. From the age of 16, she trained and danced with a number of top London dance crews and companies including Lethal Injection and Ricochet Street Dance company.
Lucy has performed at prestigious venues including Wembley arena, the O2, Hammersmith Apollo and Sadler’s Wells and has worked professionally dancing at corporate events and in music videos. She has also choreographed pieces for Move It and Resolution.
Lucy began her teaching journey in 2011 before graduating with a first class honours in Dance Studies from Middlesex University in 2012 and completing her Street dance teacher training qualification in 2016. Lucy remains the only level 4 qualified Street Dance teacher in West London.
An opportunity arose in 2015 to start dance children’s dance classes in Acton, which is when Elevate Arts was born! Lucy’s dance journey started in Ealing, so to give back to the local community and pass on the knowledge of Authentic Street Dance and the culture to the next generation, is a dream come true.
