Tracy danced freestyle from the age of 7 attending the Violet Sutherland School
of Dance in Thurso. This was a huge part of Tracy's life growing up and she
strongly believes that dancing helped her keep fit as well as grow her
confidence and widen her social circle of friends. When Tracy was 16 she decided
to train for her Associate Freestyle exam and in May 1994 sat the exam in
Inverness achieving a grade of Highly Commended. T's School of Dance was
established in Thurso in 1994 when Tracy was 17 years old, at that time being
one of the youngest freestyle teachers in the United Kingdom. In 1998 Tracy sat
her Membership Freestyle exam and Associate Rock'n'Roll exam achieving a grade
of Highly Commended for both. In 1999 Tracy decided it was time to broaden the
horizons of the dance school. T's School of Dance updated to the NRG Dance
Troupe and the competitive circuit that her dancers competed in now included
travelling all over England & Ireland. The travelling was a huge disadvantage to
the pupils but they took it all in their stride and travelled thousands of miles
a year to compete against the best dancers from the UK, Ireland and Norway.
