About Kim Lyons

Kim started to dance at the age of four with Marie Cole A.R.A.D. She joined the Irish Youth Ballet in 1984 and took part in several productions with the company in the Olympia, Gaiety and National Concert Hall.

Kim was awarded a scholarship to train in Russia where she spent her time at the Russian Perm Institute of Ballet where she studied under Madam Zechariah, a former principle Ballerina with the Kirov Ballet.

On her return to Ireland Kim performed in a Russian Ballet Gala with her Russian counterparts performing excerpts from Swan Lake, Coppelia and Nutcracker. Kim made several appearances on national and international television as a professional dancer. Kim has starred in various Stage productions including Verdis Opera (Aida), The Follies and several pantos.

In 1995 Kim established the Kim Lyons Classical Ballet & Stage School where she teaches Classical Ballet, Modern Jazz, Tap and Hip Hop. In 2004 Kim established her Drama department with Jennie Place B.A. as Principle Drama Teacher where students study Mime, Characterisation, Theatre and go for castings.

As an established adjudicator of Hip-Hop and Freestyle with the United Kingdom Alliance (M.U.K.A.) in 2005 Kim established the K.L. Pulse Hip Hop teams to compete nationally. In only two competitions Kim's senior teams went from starters first place winners to champion level.

This is the 10th anniversary of the Kim Lyons Classical Ballet Drama & Stage School and Kim would like to thank all her students for their hard work and commitment and their parents for their support.
