Growing up in Essex, Charis started taking children’s dance classes at Trinity Laban at the age of two. She went on to do the CAT scheme there for six years, while being supported by Dulwich Ballet School and Amanda Restell Academy of Dance. She had a great time working with Matthew Slater, Patricia Okenwa, Gary Clarke, Eleanor Sikorski and Anthony Missen during her time at NSCD. Next year, she will be studying an MA in Dance Performance as part of Trinity Laban’s Transitions Dance Company. She hopes to continue to create her own work and collaborate with other artists. She’d like to thank the school and her peers who have helped her get through the pandemic and still finish her degree despite the challenges.
