Miss Clayton (Principal)

From the age of 6 years, Deborah Clayton was dancing and performing in Telford, Shropshire. At the age of 16, she trained at the Merseyside Dance and Drama Centre in Liverpool on a three-year intensive teaching dancing training course.

Deborah has worked extensively in dance and choreography for many years. She started her professional career as a dancer and has completed many contracts worldwide. She was dancing professionally in Japan and later danced and choreographed on some of the largest cruise liners in the world. On returning back to the UK, she spent three years teaching at various dance schools in Shropshire and in 2001 she fulfilled her life long ambition to open up her very own dance school.

The entire team at Clayton School of Dance & Performing Arts are committed, professional and passionate about the school. Deborah's wealth of teaching experience and love of dance ensures the well-being of each pupil is in very capable hands and every class is enjoyable and inspiring.
