Viki trained at The Royal Ballet School and The Hammond School of Dancing before joining London Festival Ballet at the age of 17. She danced there for 7 years before moving to Northern Ballet Theatre where she became a principal, dancing and creating many major roles. After retiring from the stage Viki worked as Events Manager for Northern Ballet, then followed her heart into teaching, guesting at many of the top vocational schools in the UK and also in Italy. She now teaches on the graduate programme at Northern Ballet Academy, has her own Pilates Studio at Chatsworth and also writes and reviews for dance magazines.
Northern Ballet's Ugly Duckling offers a fantastic and inclusive introduction to the ballet for the whole family and at just 45 minutes long, does not try anyone's patience.
