Eleanor’s career path has been firmly rooted within the disciplines of Drama,
Dance and Music. Having initially trained as a ballet dancer at the Royal
Academy of Dance, London, under the instruction of June Mitchel, Eleanor went on
to gain a degree in Music, specialising in the voice. Post degree, Eleanor’s
work has taken her into the film industry, television productions, modelling, a
singing residency in Mayfair and even a record deal. Eleanor has also been lucky
enough to explore dramatic performance through many platforms including: Film
The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus (as Lily Cole’s body double/stand in) Inkheart

in Ascot, and teaching quickly became what is now a lifelong passion. Equipping
pupils with the skills to build self-concept through communication and
expression became a driving force for Eleanor. She was among the first group of
postgraduates to be awarded the Royal Academy of Dance’s Diploma in Dance
Teaching Studies, and Eleanor is currently completing her MA Education (Drama).
Alongside her pedagogical studies, Eleanor taught Drama, Dance and Musical
Theatre at a further four independent schools in Ascot for over a decade. She
and her wonderful team currently deliver the co-curricular Performing Arts
provision at 7 schools and colleges within Surrey and Hampshire. “I have an
immense passion for teaching and feel privileged to have such an enriching
career. Through my teaching, I strive to make the studio a fully inclusive,
inspirational environment in which students can develop and have their talents
nurtured. Continued professional development is critical in the evolving world
of performing arts education. I recognise and embrace the importance of
reflecting upon current teaching strategies and adapting to the needs of
students, and I am a great advocate of Dance, Drama and Musical Theatre in a
child development capacity.” Eleanor Bowyer BA (Hons), HND, RAD DDTS, PGDip Ed.
