Joanna began her dance career at the ripe old age of 3 years old when her mother enrolled her in kinder ballet lessons, from there her passion for dance only grew as the years passed by.
Joanna has studied dance in many capacities over the years. She is passionate about movement research and creating a powerful connection and inspired atmosphere within the space when creating a dancescape, improvising, performing, teaching or facilitating.
Joanna is heavily influenced by her Anglo-Latina roots, often drawing inspiration from latino-american music, dance styles and cultural ideologies, while still involving the imagery, lines and mastery of classical ballet and music.
She loves being outdoors and creating movement in nature, dancing to the sounds and energies of the great outdoors. Being heavily influenced by the movement around her, Joanna attributes her passion for nature to her upbringing amongst the beautiful landscapes, flora and fauna of South East Queensland.
