T'kayah Tanoa

I have had a passion for dance my entire life. Grooving around the loungeroom to Juice TV was great but it wasn’t enough so at the age of 9 I started performing. I have been lucky enough to train with some truly amazing teachers in a wide range of genres including Jazz, Contemporary, Hip Hop, Lyrical, Tap, Acrobatics, Musical Theatre, Singing and Acting. 

Through my years of dancing I have had the privilege of performing up and down the Coast from Rockhampton down to Coolangatta including the Cooly Rocks Festival. I first started assistant teaching at 14 years old and found I have a real love and niche for it. Dancing has been a great part of my life but being able to teach and be a positive influence to others has been an even greater achievement. 

I have been assisting Carlie for the past two years now and she has not only taught me everything about Acrobatics but to also believe in yourself, follow your dreams and be the best you can be. Sharing my knowledge and passion with others is what I love and look forward to.
