CONNECT ASSOCIATE PROGRAMME PROFESSIONAL TRAINING FOR THE NEXT GENERATION
With over 15 years of experience in the dance industry, Luke Field Wright, Hannah Levitt-Collins & Crystal Hantig have performed across Musical Theatre, the West End, Commercials, Global Tours, Fashion, Film, and more. Their work spans not only dance, but also modelling, acting, choreography, assisting, stunts, and leading as dance captains. Now, they’re uniting their expertise to launch Connect Associates — a monthly intensive for aspiring dancers committed to elevating their craft and pursuing a career in the arts.
This programme is not a dance school or regular studio class — it’s high-level, professional training that works alongside your existing timetable. Designed as an additional top-up, Connect Associates provides a safe, inspiring space where dancers can refine their techniques, grow in confidence, and strengthen their mindset.
At the heart of our mission is your development — not just as a dancer, but as a well-rounded artist. We care deeply about dancer wellbeing, self-belief, and building lasting confidence to carry them through their journey. Whether you’re preparing for college auditions, navigating training, or dreaming of the stage, our intensives will challenge, support, and empower you.
