Specialist Musculoskeletal and Specialist Dance Physiotherapist
Teegan graduated with a Master’s in Physiotherapy from The Robert Gordon University in 2022 after embarking on a career change from professional ballet. Since the age of 11 she trained full-time at Canada’s National Ballet School in Toronto. Upon graduation she continued her training at the Royal Conservatoire of the Hague in The Netherlands, receiving a Bachelor of Dance in 2010. Teegan enjoyed a near decade-long career dancing on international stages as a member of the Bavarian State Ballet in Munich and later the South Bohemian Theatre in the Czech Republic. Through dancing she explored the incredible capacity of the human body but learned the frustration of being limited by pain and injury. Experiencing physiotherapy from a patient’s point of view, she now strives to help others attain their movement goals.
Teegan’s work as a ballet teacher alongside her physiotherapy has driven a deep interest in human biomechanics, and she loves guiding clients through quality movement to achieve the best outcomes. Her experience both on stage and in the clinic has reaffirmed her belief that healthy movement starts with a strong core. She completed her APPI Matwork Levels 1-3 and leads Intermediate Pilates classes in Westhill.
With a keen interest in neurological rehabilitation, Teegan underwent specialised training to lead Dance for Parkinson’s classes in Aberdeen. She wants everyone to share in the joys of movement and uncover their movement potential. As a firm believer that exercise should be fun, Teegan spends her free time hiking with her dog, dancing in the studio and volunteering as a ranger for the National Trust for Scotland.
