At 16 Samuel was offered places with scholarships at Tring, Laine Theatre Arts School and Bird Theatre Arts School in Sidcup to continue his Theatre Arts and Dance training. Samuel had wanted to go to Bird since he was 8 years old and won a full Dance and Drama Award. Samuel's natural choice was to pick Bird to do a 3 year diploma course. He attends college Monday to Friday and teaches at weekends and holidays.

 

Samuel's training presenting involves Ballet, Jazz, Tap, Contemporary, Drama, Musical Theatre, Singing and Voice. He would like to eventually train as a teacher in Ballet. Although his ultimate dream is to play The Phantom, in the west end.

His help with The Jammin' Dodgers is invaluable.
