Meet Bee: A Global Performer Turned Fitness queen.

Bee is a British-born, internationally trained movement artist and instructor with a background that spans the USA, Mexico, and the UK. A graduate of Point Park University’s Dance program, she began her career performing and choreographing for renowned names like RWS Group and Hard Rock Hotel in Mexico and the Dominican Republic.

Bee later discovered pole dance, quickly rising to competitive levels across Mexico, the USA, and the UK under the mentorship of Edouard Doye. Her movement practice expanded further to include handbalancing, which she continues to refine with top Manchester coaches like Charlie St. Leger and Joseph Flinders.

After overcoming hip osteoarthritis and undergoing a hip replacement, Bee turned to Reformer Pilates for rehabilitation—an experience that inspired her to certify in Pilates and specialize in functional, joyful movement. She now teaches Reformer, Pilates, Barre, Pole, and Handstand at leading Manchester studios, including BLOK, The Health Lab, Tiva Pole Dance, Thrive Pilates, and more.

Bee is the founder of HANDSTAND HIVE, a vibrant community hosting workshops in Manchester and Mexico, uniting circus artists, gymnasts, and enthusiasts of all levels. She holds a second degree in Spanish from Manchester Metropolitan University and is expanding her qualifications with certifications in Biomechanics and Pilates for Older Adults.

With a blend of performance artistry, technical precision, and a deep commitment to growth, Bee empowers her students to explore movement, build strength, and enjoy every step of their journey.
