Skills Audit!!!

About me!!

Hi, my name is Honey Makwana and I'm 14 years old. I live in High Barnet with my twin brothers, my older sister, my mum and my step dad. My mum, who is a dancer inspired me to dance. I used to watch her attend Ballet, Jazz and Contemporary classes when I was younger. I am currently training on the CAT programme (Centre for advanced training) at The Place, I go there twice a week on Wednesdays and Saturdays. I have been there for four years and I'm so excited for what is next to come. By being on CAT, I get to work with loads of phenomenal choreographers when I do intensives at The Place, such as Matthew Bourne, Wayne McGregor, Richard Alston, Phoenix Dance Company, Tony Adigun and many more.   I also recently got chosen to work with a Dance Company called H2DANCE. With this company I have toured Norway, Sweden and will soon be touring the UK. I've also had an amazing opportunity to perform on The Sadler's Wells stage with a company called 'Ballet Lorent' where we performed a production called Rapunzel.  

Swimming

I have been swimming for ten and a half years at a club called 'Broomfield Park Swimming Club' (BPSC). Swimming is an amazing skill in life, but also it increases your pleasure and fun when you go on holiday and get to swim across massive rivers. I've also done a number of swimming competitions at Venues in and out of London which have been challenging. 

I have now reached a level where I can assist as a water-helper for (BPSC). This is one way on me earning money which is great because it gives me independence. To get this position I had to do a training course which consisted of 2 hours of written work and 4 hours of practical tasks in the water.  

I was home-schooled for the past 3 years and absolutely loved it. The reason I was home-schooled was because my mother was disillusioned with the state school system and thought my overall development would be better down the home-schooling route.
