Megan Fage
Principal
LIDTA Ballroom AIDTA Latin
Megan did some Ballroom and Latin when she was younger but her main sport was sprinting until she went to University.
After Uni, she went back to dancing and started helping in classes and teaching alongside her mum, Angela.
Megan qualified with the IDTA in Associate Ballroom in 2010 and then her Associate Latin in 2016.
In 2023 she gained her Licentiate Ballroom qualification.
In December 2024 she took her first Associate Freestyle module and will complete the Freestyle Associate in June 2025.
Megan loves to take people in for their medal tests and particularly enjoys the higher grades and the more intricate routines. She also likes to see complete beginners go from not being able to dance a step to eventually moving around the room.
The children's classes were introduced to the school by Megan in 2020.
She also teaches Ballroom Blast! Fitness and Dance & Tone, two exercise classes based on Ballroom and Latin dancing.
Angela Higgs
AIDTA Ballroom and Latin
Angela started dancing at a young age with Old Time dancing which is now called Classical Sequence.
She then moved on to Ballroom and Latin dancing and after getting married, moved to Bedford and started teaching at The County Dance Centre.
The owner retired and in 1984 Angela became principal and took her Ballroom qualification with the IDTA.
She took her Latin Associate in 2018 after helping her daughter Megan with her Latin Associate and realising she may as well do hers.
In March 202 she handed the school over to her daughter, Megan. You will still find Angela teaching in the school and helping out at events.
We also have Fiona who helps teach on a Wednesday evening. Her background is coaching competitors but after stopping that she now now likes to help out in social adult classes.
A new edition to our school is Amanda. She will be helping in the children's classes. She has taught Ballroom and Latin for many years and since retiring and moving near Bedford has decided she misses the teaching.
