Bio...

Anna has been dancing since the age of seven, training in RAD ballet and Jazz before moving on to contemporary dance while at university.  After some time away from the dance community to pursue travel, adventure sports and study yoga, Anna was lured back to dance while living in Perth, Australia through a friend who was attending classes in African dance.  This was instant love for Anna as the rhythms, movement and stories that came with traditional African dance were irresistable to her.  This was followed by a four year study and exploration of African dance for Anna, with numerous travelling dancers and musicians  from West Africa making their way to Perth to share their love of dance and music through workshops and short study intensives.  Anna also studied this style of dance under several practitioners living in the Perth area and regularly performed at festivals, parties, dance events and special corporate events.

Since returning to NZ Anna has gathered all her experience and resources together to start dancing and teaching dance here.  The grooves are infectious and the moves beautiful, explosive and depict aspects of life in traditional communities.
