​
​At 13 she began training full time at stonelands Performing Arts School in Brighton, gaining excellent technical training, along with more stage performances as a dancer, actress and singer.

​Since leaving Stonelands Miss Paula has danced within centres of excellence for dance training, and attended full time college. Here she gained her ISTD dance teaching qualifications, under the guidance of some the best ISTD teachers and examiners in the UK. 
​
