TIM CLAYDON

Freelance choreographer and movement director
 
This section of my website has taken me the most time, as I don't want just to write a list of past jobs. It’s not just the jobs, but all of my work and life experiences over the past 30 years that have shaped me into the artist I am today.

I feel most fortunate to have had a long and varied career. To have fulfilled a childhood dream to study dance at a professional dance school. Danced with London City Ballet, became an aerial artist  and now have an international choreographic career.

But the achievement of which I’m the most proud, is doing all this whilst raising and supporting my family.


My ultimate aim is now to direct and create my own work. I need to find a way to take all the ideas that I have formed in my head, and scribbled down in my notebooks, off the page and onto the stage.
