About us

Lisa Purchas & Mikaila Godfrey are an incredible Mother & Daughter duo who have danced their whole lives.

About Us – No strangers to the world of media and the power of film to teach dance that transcends geographical isolation, or financial hardship; Lisa and Mikaila created and launched the Teach Me to Dance DVD series in 2007 to teach children and adults in some of the most remote regions of the world, classical ballet, jazz, and stretch and conditioning.  Their popular DVDs sold for many years internationally.  As technology advanced with the advent of all things digital, the pair then uploaded their extensive video footage as a philanthropic gesture to their Dancescene YouTube channel so that adults and children could participate in dance classes free of charge.

“When Covid hit in December 2019, the world held its collective breath.  The pandemic has been brutal on a global scale and our hearts go out to those who have lost loved ones because of it.  Without a doubt we have all been affected to greater and lesser extents.  Many in the Arts world have been creatively resilient despite the incessant pressure on ballet companies, theatres, studios and events everywhere.  We have seen images of dancers teaching from their kitchens and lounge rooms just to stay connected, and we know that staying fit and healthy is especially important during these times.” To find out more about us go to the News page
