Romayne Etwaroo
Second in command at Sugarpush HQ.
Romayne is a professional dancer working as a teacher, facilitator and performer in the UK and internationally. She was born in Coventry, taking her first steps into dance at a young age and eventually going on to study a BA (hons) in Contemporary Dance at Bath Spa University.
After completing her degree, she joined Spare Tyre on their internship programme – gaining valuable experience as a facilitator whilst creating multi-sensory theatre alongside adults with learning disabilities. Romayne then began teaching dance classes in care homes, schools, SEN schools and in various other environments with adults and children with additional needs.
Romayne’s love of swing music is the whole reason why she began swing dancing. She started assisting Swing dance classes with friend and dance partner Holly France. Since then Romayne is a regular collaborator with Sugarpush Vintage Dance as a teacher, performer and for the past 3 years curating and producing several bespoke swing dance retreats internationally. You can catch Romayne teaching weekly swing dance classes and workshops for Sugarpush and for Swingland.
