Nafisah Baba

Since winning BBC Young Dancer in 2017, Nafisah (Tring Park School for the Performing Arts & West London School of dance alumni), has worked with companies & renowned choreographers, performing through the UK and internationally, whilst also continuing to dive into the freelance, TV & Film world. Starting with Tap, Ballet, Jazz and Modern, with extensive Classical & Contemporary Dance training and inspired by different Hip Hop qualities, Nafisah’s hybrid way of movement encompasses many elements, as well as her teaching style & methods.
She recently finished working on Kim Brandstrup’s ‘Breaking Bach’, performing at this year’s Edinburgh International Festival in Bucharest. As well as being excited and inspired returning to this CAT programme, Nafisah is also a Ballet Futures Facilitator with English National Ballet and will begin working with the students at Laine Theatre Arts.
She loved all things creative but her passions rest in performing on stage, choreographing, teaching all ages & levels, and mentoring students taking their next steps.
