Kate finally settles a recording deal with EMI. The contract is for four years, with options at the end of the second and third year.
Kate receives a 3,000-Pound advance [and 500 Pounds for publication rights].
EMI are content for Kate to take time to write songs, sharpen her lyrics, train her voice and generally have time to "grow up".
Kate pursues her dancing, first at the Elephant and Castle, South London. But after seeing Lindsay Kemp perform in Flowers, she attends his classes at the Dance Centre in Covent Garden.
After Kemp goes to Australia, Kate trains with Arlene Phillips, choreographer of Hot Gossip.
[It is probably at this time that Kate's association with Gary Hurst and Stewart Avon-Arnold, her longtime dancing partners, begins.]
