Melinda has been dancing since the age of 3.

She has completed her Teaching Level in FATD Tap, Jazz and Modern, and has also studied RAD Ballet, singing and drama.

Melinda commenced teaching at just 12 years of age, assisting my sister at her Dance School in Sydney.
She then went on to perform professionally in a Pantomime touring the East Coast of Australia, then she performed in a Cabaret Show in Japan for 6 months.

After moving to the Central Coast, Melinda opened her own Dance School in 1993 "FAME School Of Performing Arts".

She successfully and joyfully taught at FAME until closing the school in 2007 due to family commitments.
