🔥 Come Dance with Ava! 🔥

We’re excited to welcome Ava as a guest instructor at our Burn It Up Intensives and maybe a lil pop-up or two 😉

Ava is a dancer, choreographer, and instructor from Lake Country, BC. This September, she will be continuing her training in Vancouver through the Harbour Dance Intensive Training Program.

With over 15 years of dance training, Ava has studied a wide range of styles, including ballet, lyrical, tap, and musical theatre, while specializing in Hip Hop, Jazz, Jazz Funk, and Contemporary. Throughout her competitive career, she has trained with renowned choreographers including Francis Aranton, Jordan Clark, Victor Lau, Christie Lee Manning, Julio Fuentes, Heather Dotto, and many others.

Ava began teaching at her home studio, Lake Country School of Dance, where she led six hip hop classes during a summer intensive, working with more than 85 dancers. Since then, she has continued teaching dancers each week and has choreographed numerous routines for dancers of all ages.

As an instructor, Ava is passionate about building strong technical foundations while inspiring confidence, musicality, performance quality, and authentic artistry. She values clean movement, a strong work ethic, and creating a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment where every dancer feels empowered to grow.

We’re so excited for our dancers to experience Ava’s passion, creativity, and knowledge this summer. You won’t want to miss training with her at Burn It Up! 🔥💥
