She went onto train at the Royal Academy of Dance in 2019, alongside running SODA here in Oxford. Bella has achieved her Licentiate to the RAD alongside her degree, earning Registered Teacher Status as well as a High Merit in her Advanced One Ballet Examination.

Alongside her work running SODA, Bella also works for a charity called MacIntyre. She works with vulnerable children and adults with different Learning Disabilities and/or Autism, to help provide dance classes and teacher training to those who may not be able to access it elsewhere. MacIntyre Dancer's aim is to break down stereotypes surrounding dance and ensure it is accessible to all, no matter their ability. The MacIntyre Dancer's often get involved in SODA's performances and events.
