Hayley has over 25 years experience as a ballroom and latin american dancer, competing and placing in major competitions in Australia and internationally. She started dancing at the age of 7, excelling in jazz and physical culture, but found her passion in ballroom dancing at Foley’s Dance Studio in Wagga Wagga. Hayley started competing in national competitions by the age of 10. By the age of 19, Hayley was representing Australia internationally and placing in many major competitions.
During her time competing overseas, Hayley had the opportunity to perform in cabaret shows demonstrating and participating in dance instruction for beginner, intermediate and advanced students. This experience gave her much pleasure and her love and commitment to dance evolved!
In early 2000 she was one of the top Australian couples competing in 10 dance (ballroom/latin combined) and new vogue. She has been a finalist in the “Australian Dancesport Championships” and have made national finals throughout the majority of her dancing career.
Hayley’s passion for dancing evolved into theatre performances when she was casted as a “Feature Ballroom Dancer” in the show “Tempo Rouge”, a Dion and Randall Production at Jupiters Casino on the Gold Coast in Queensland. From there she was found and started working on 6 star luxury cruise liners, Regent and Silversea cruises as a “Star Performer”. This continued on for 5 years, Hayley loved all the challenges and experiences of performing onstage for people from all around the world.
In 2014, Hayley’s proudest moment was making the top 50 in Australia’s national tv show “So You Think You Can Dance”. She had been hand picked out of thousands of dancers across Australia and was heavily featured on the show.
Through her success in “So You Think You Can Dance”, Hayley realised how much she wanted to pass her knowledge onto her Wagga Wagga/Riverina family and has made herself available for lessons and lectures in the area and because of this she has now laid foundations into her own dance school, Luxe Dance Studio! In the very heart of Wagga Wagga, her hometown from where her love and passion for dance was launched.
Hayley ‘s goal for “Luxe Dance Studio” is to provide the community of Wagga Wagga and the Riverina a quality service, reinforcing wellbeing and positive inspiration. A service that offers over 25 years experience and knowledge in the industry. An “Open Door” policy to people from all walks of life!
