Carol is an winning choreographer, dance tutor and performer who has led community dance in the Swansea Bay area of Wales, UK for over 30 years.  She has created countless productions on professional and community casts of up to 300 people in community settings, theatres and on television. Carol has worked in Europe, Africa and Asia Minor including on the Adugna Project for street children in Ethiopia.  She has instigated and organised cultural exchanges for Welsh groups with partners in Germany, Lithuania, Uganda, South Africa Spain and Scotland.

In 2014, Carol founded Dragon’s Heart & Dragon’s Soul, a company of diverse capacity artists who dance meaningful full length pieces unaided by volunteers. Speaking of the development of her first work for the company, Sorrowful Sun, she says “The heart of our approach would be using dance as a field of action to give value to difference. We would work to the abilities and needs of each dancer while challenging them to go beyond what they thought would be possible.”
