Keep the one arm kid dancing

Earlier this year, I moved to Sydney to train in dance fulltime at Brent Street Performing Arts Centre. Getting here was thanks in large part to the support and generosity of friends, family and many other New Zealanders, and I’m very grateful for that – people are truly amazing!

I’ve learnt a huge amount from this whole experience – mainly that, at the end of the day, it’s all about the people.

My goal now is to dance into the industry as a professional dancer and to teach!!

Once I finish this year, I plan to run motivational seminars and dance workshops to help inspire and motivate others to pursue their dreams.

There are only a few months left to go and I need a little help and support to help get me across the line.

You can help me reach this dream!

And I hope, see that you can achieve what you want to achieve too.

My story

I started dancing when i was 4 years old and haven't stopped since. I’ve had to overcome many challenges in my life to get where i am today and I’m passionate to not only share my story but to inspire and motivate other people to pursue their dreams.

At the age of 6 my family was involved in a car accident that damaged both my arms. My right arm was able to be fixed up but my left arm had to be amputated above the elbow. This speed bump in my adventure never stopped me and i have continued to overcome every obstacle that life has thrown at me.

I’m lucky enough to be surrounded by an amazing crowd of family and friends., and I’m looking forward to giving back and inspiring others!
