About Me
- Banks School of Scottish Dancing
- Sydney, NSW, Australia
- My name is Justine and I began dancing when I was 3 years old with Carolyn Woollett in Sydney. 18 years later she successfully put me through my examiners (SDAA) and judges exams. In 1988, when I was 16, I travelled to Scotland to compete on the Games Circuit and at the world championships. It was the most amazing experience of my life. Two things stand out; placing sixth in the Jig at Stonehaven games (there were 18 in the section and at least 8 world champions there as well!) and standing on the stage at Cowal for the Worlds. In 1995 I moved to Scotland to live there for 12 months. While in Scotland, I worked as a school teacher and took dancing lessons from Anna Bain and Sheila McKay. It was a wonderful time. I returned to Australia in 1996, married my college sweetheart Mark and set up my own dancing school, 'Banksies'. Fourteen years later we are still going strong! I currently have approximately 20 students whose ages range from two years to adults in my 'wifeys' class. I run both competitive and recreation classes. Highland Dancing is more than just a hobby; it is a part of my life and I love it!
