Dinkie learned dancing and skating skills
at London’s Italia Conti Academy Theatre Of Arts and traveled the world for her programs. She was the only British acrobatic skater once.However, in 1940 in Paris, she was arrested for wearing a red dress in the show because prostitutes used to wear red dresses during that period.

Dinkie auditioned to be a part of The Greatest Dancer show and made her TV debut with her tap dance skills, and that was at the age of 98(!).
During her dancing career,
Dinkie met her Geoege, her future husband, and married him. However, her husband passed away in 2005. They had a daughter named Sara. She also was a professional dancer like her mother. Dinkie has four grandchildren.

What Dinkie Flower said?
"I won’t stop until they carry me away in a box"
"It sounds hard, but it’s never too late to start. Once you know what you’re doing and being taught by a teacher you’d love it. You don’t have to go mad, but it’s good to keep on moving your body, bending your knees and stuff like that."
"Dance is my life, and helping people dance is my life.
"I couldn't live without dancing and I think it's kept me young and happy. I see people just sitting down and studying all day, but it's important to get up and keep moving - I need to do that."
