Hi, I’m Ali!

DANCE BUSINESS COACH & CEO OF BUST A MOVE DANCE

I help Dance Business Owners conquer doubt and burnout to create financial FREEDOM and unshakeable confidence in leadership, lifestyle and career.

Whether you own a brick and mortar studio, operate as an entrepreneur or are just starting out in the world of Dance Business, it is my absolute pleasure to hold sacred space for you to explore & implement your ideas, vision and dreams. Through cultivating new daily habits, relying on the inner wisdom of your emotions and taking aligned action that feels authentic to you, consider me your ‘tough love’ ultimate cheerleader to growing a sustainable, purposeful Dance business.

YOU ABSOLUTELY GET TO CHOOSE THE LIFE YOU WANT TO LIVE - let me guide you in uncovering what’s holding you back so you can embody who you were born to be.

 
 

How it started…

I began my career after founding Bust a Move Dance (BAMD), one of Australia’s first inclusive dance companies for children, teens and adults with disabilities in 2009

Straight out of high school I dove head first into the world of entrepreneurship, gaining unparalleled experience in the dance, education and business spaces. I quickly developed a passion for both teaching and leadership, establishing myself as a confident, trailblazing young business owner, paving my own path and creating my own definition of success.

Founding Bust a Move Dance is my greatest achievement. When I created it as a teenager I had no idea I was creating a legacy that would last this long. I am so proud of the community that stands strong in its celebration of inclusion and it will continue to be my greatest joy watching it grow.

 Sometimes I think we spend so much time trying to figure out what our purpose in life is, when most often than not it’s the thing that has felt the most comfortable, easy and enjoyable from an early age

My childhood shaped the person I am today

…our inner child is here to remind us of who we truly are

All I’m here to say is that every single one of us has the choice to live the life we want. Is it going to be hard? Are there going to be obstacles? Are you going to want to give up?

Absolutely.

But the feeling on the other side is so worth it.
