Tammy Tropeau began her professional dance training at the age of nine at the National Ballet School in Toronto. After six years of study in both the Vagonova and Cecchetti methods with such teachers as Ms. Oliphant, Mr. Luc Amyot, and Karen Kain, Tammy graduated in 1992. After a short professional training program in Philadelphia, Tammy realized that her feet were failing and underwent reconstructive surgery on both feet. She then returned to the National Ballet School for an additional two years for their Professional Teacher Training Program. Tammy graduated in 1994 and holds her Elementary, Intermediate, and Advanced Cecchetti Certificates as well as her Associate Imperial Society Teachers of Dancing certificate allowing her to place students into examinations. At the age of nineteen, Tammy returned to Saskatoon to open her own studio, "Studio One RP Dance". Since then she has been invited to Spain to study flamenco dance, traveled to New York and Las Vegas to study new dance techniques, and returned to Toronto for Cecchetti seminars.
