English actor living in Barcelona
Simon Brading is an English actor, choreographer and dancer.
He was educated at Dulwich College, London and Royal Holloway (University of London) where he studied a degree in Physics, before training at the Rambert School and Ballet West.
From 2002 to 2004 he worked as a dancer in London with the now defunct Imaginaire Ballet before moving to Madrid to join the Juan-Carlos Santamaria and Larumbe dance companies.
