Kayla takes classes in ballet, jazz, tap, lyrical, hip hop, contemporary, commercial jazz and acrobatics.
She trains in the studio’s Elite Training Program which includes conditioning and troupe work. She also has private lessons to learn solos for competitions.
Kayla received 100 percent for her Cecchetti International Grade 4 Ballet examination and 100 percent for her Bronze Star Jazz examination in 2022.
She won the Cecchetti Ballet Junior Encouragement Award in 2022 and is a finalist in the 2023 Rose Medal Award.
Kayla is also a member of the prestigious Cecchetti Ballet Junior Scholars program.
In December 2022, Kayla performed in the State Youth Ballet Company’s production of Alice in Wonderland.
Kayla loves that “the teachers (at Cathy-Lea) challenge me and push me to be my best. I’m always learning new things”.
She wants to let people know that “classes are fun and everyone is really nice”.
She says that unlike other studios, Cathy-Lea “offers a lot of different styles and you can pick what you like”.
Kayla’s favourite event is the annual Cathy-Lea concert which is presented as a fully themed production with acting, singing and dancing involving all students from the age of 3 to adults.
Kayla hopes you will come and dance with her at Cathy-Lea in 2023.
