Murray Arts
I am a 17-year-old dancer from the Albury-Wodonga region, training part-time under the guidance of internationally renowned director and choreographer Tim Podesta. My training takes place in a professional and disciplined environment, where I focus on developing the technical, artistic, and physical elements required for a successful career in dance.
My training is primarily centered around classical ballet and contemporary dance, both of which challenge me to grow as a versatile and expressive performer. I am passionate about exploring my full potential as an artist, constantly striving to refine my technique and performance skills.
