From her first jazz class at age 11, Louise Gooding was hooked on dance!

Louise studied dance in the United Kingdom, completing exams in Jazz and Hiphop with IDTA and NATD.

Performing in theatres, events and competitions around the UK, including Saddlers Wells London and Euro Disney, Louise moved to Queenstown in 2007. She became owner of Danceworks in 2012.

Louise says her passion for dance is too hard to put into words; it’s an indefinable magic that is best passed on through teaching to her students.
