Ballerina Kitty Phetla is featured on today's Afternoon Express.

While she won't be in the loft, she'll be featured in our "Getting Under Your Skin" feature, brought to you by Dermalogica. Kitty Phetla was trained by Martin Schönberg from the age of nine, later joining Mr Schönberg’s Ballet Theatre African. While with BTA (1998 – 2002), she received many awards and took part in international ballet competitions such as the Prix de Lausanne, the Cecchetti Ballet Competition in Australia and the Helsinki Ballet Competition.  She obtained her Cecchetti International Teachers Qualification in 2002.

Kitty has performed as a guest artist, locally and internationally, and has danced leading roles in ballets such as Giselle, The Dying Swan and Les Sylphides. She has been commissioned to choreograph several works, such as Within and a pas de deux, Jolie, for 2008 Arts Alive.

In today's show, Kitty talks about having a pigmentation issue with her skin, with Lauren from Dermalogica giving us expert advice on how to combat this.
