Dance Teacher, The Royal Ballet School, Rambert and The Ballet School London

Amy Giancarlo has been an active RAD teaching member since 2011 and has taught RAD syllabi to students of all ages, abilities and backgrounds, both in the UK and overseas. She tutors on the CDT programme and has previously mentored CBTS students and undergraduate teachers. Currently, she holds teaching positions at The Royal Ballet School, Rambert and The Ballet School London. Previously, Amy taught at Central School of Ballet, Thomas’s London Day Schools and Trinity Laban.

Amy credits much of her success to her childhood RAD teacher, who taught her the importance of hard work and perseverance. She feels she owes it to her to apply her expertise, education and experience to represent her voice – and the voices of other fellow members – to ensure decisions are made in the collective interest.

As a graduate of The Royal Ballet School’s Diploma of Dance Teaching, she advocates for innovative, reflective practices that embrace change and honour tradition. As a trustee, she is happy to challenge the status quo to bring about positive change for RAD members worldwide.
