At just the age of 12, she started her own dance class and this is where her teaching career started. Caitlin now has her own dance school, Oscillate Dance Company, which started in January 2020. In a short period of time, her dancers have become Welsh and British Champions! Caitlin is incredibly passionate about developing street dance all over the UK and giving people the chance to shine.
