Precision Dance

Marina Blore, director of World Dance Management said: “As an ex dancer and choreographer, I remember The Tiller Girls of the late 60’s and 70’s and professional dancers everywhere held them in very high regard. Being a Tiller always commanded respect. It is a huge honour to be handed the reigns to re-launch The Tiller Girls and whilst we plan to make the look and choreography relevant to today’s audience, the original traditions and disciplines of precision dance will be an integral part of the new look Tiller Girls.
