Kerrey Warr
Principle
Kerrey’s love of dancing started at 9 when she took her first dance class with Simone. She soon became hooked training 5 times a week. Gaining her first IDTA graduate teaching qualifications at 16 then her associate at 18, she realised this was the world for her. Her professional training continued with Phil Winston and before long she found herself on board her first cruise ship. This was the beginning of an exciting career that allowed her to combine her two passions: dance and travel. Along with her cruise ship contracts she has also worked land based all over the world, performing with and for many celebrities such as Robbie Williams, Sugar Babes, Leona Lewis to mention a few.
Now retired from performing her passion is teaching and choreography.
