Eliza James

Eliza originally trained in ballet but soon realised she was a hip hop girl at heart and left her ballet slippers behind her in favour of her Adidas High Tops.

She attended Urban Academy for street dance classes from 8 years old and then transferred to Ealing Street Dance Academy in 2011 where she has trained in all types of hip hop and where she now teaches two of her own classes and is assistant teacher in 6 classes.

She has also trained in various disciplines at Studio 68 and Pineapple Studios as well as spending time at Warriorz Perfoming Arts School and also competing in various national competitions all over the country.

A naturally creative character, Eliza also studies Media at Kingston College as well as having a keen eye on photography and the visual arts.

Gifted in choreography, heading up our Senior Crew and with a real flair for teaching, Eliza is a popular and well-loved teacher at ESDA and is a very special individual who the kids, parents and teachers all adore.
