Teachers
Here at JGN DANCE ATTIC we pride ourselves on the quality of our teaching.
All our instructors have the same aims in the arts and work to achieve the
highest standards from our students.
Jackie graduated from Performers College, London
as a professional dancer with a diploma in Dance and
Musical Theatre, also graduating with modern Dance
Teacher Qualifications. Jackie has travelled the world
as a professional dancer. She has appeared at many
different venues including, Wembly Stadium, Wembly
Arena, Hackney Empire, BBC and ITV studios also
cruise ships, casinos and theatres throughout the
world.
Jackie Nicoll (A.I.S.T.D)
After seven years of dancing professionally, Jackie had to return to her howntown
of Perth, after suffering a terrible injury to her shoulder. Jackie decided to carry
on dancing professionally would be too much of a risk, however she took a year
out to return to full health then returned to the dance scene. Using her teaching
and choreography qualifications Jackie freelanced across Perth and Tayside for
four years, working with many different organisations and projects.
In 2007 Jackie flew across to New York with 8 of her students from Arbroath
to train at the ‘Hip Hop Dance Conservatory’. The trip was a great success and
a chance of a lifetime experience not to be missed. After four years of freelance
dance teaching and hiring different dance halls throughout Perth, Jackie decided
to look for her own Studio, and in October 2007, she found the studio space
required. After two months of refurbishment JGN DANCE ATTIC was officially
opened in January 2008.
JGN DANCE ATTIC is now home to 30 different classes every week, with over
300 students attending, aged from 18 months - 50.
Jackie continues to build success in her ever growing business proving her talents
as a dance teacher and choreographer.

Megan flew to London for Megan to attend the BDAF’s first street dance
level 1 training course. Megan recently started three quad groups; under
10s, under 14s and under 18s. These quads all took part in the maximum
dance competition in Dundee where the under 10s gained 2nd place. All
three groups will be competing at the world street dance championships
in August. In July last year, Megan attended a course to become the
teacher of our new parent and child classes, Disco Duck.
