In 2015 I worked with Dr Erica Rose Jeffrey to undertake research and community consultation to inform the development of a youth training program for Expressions Dance Company. We used a mixed methods approach to ascertain industry gaps, opportunities, and the company’s unique position in the dance landscape.

Expressions Dance Company has since actioned the findings of this research and initiated their Youth Ensemble in 2018.

This research was commissioned by Expressions Dance Company and funded by the Australia Council for the Arts.
