Chantal Guevara (Mexican / German)
Chantal finally started dancing in 1995, immediately before and after starting her studies at UCL’s Institute of Archaeology, having responded badly to ballet as a child. She has since trained at The Place's Evening School and JWAAD (Egyptian Dance) as well as in a wide range of other styles (including in Marseille, Dublin and Guatemala), while she worked as a belly dancer and a dancer on London's acoustic music circuit. Being rather accident-prone, and a workaholic, there have been extended periods of time when she has been unable to attend class - and indeed rehearsals.
