Leanne grew up in Invercargill, where she started learning Tap at an early age. By the time she was 13, she was already teaching competition tap routines, and then went on to full time teaching of the MBBO Syllabus.

Amber trained in Tap, Ballet and Jazz from the age of 8, gaining honours passes in BAL, ISTD, RAD and BBO examinations. Amber performed at competitions over an 8 year period with great success including a second placing in the National Tap Awards.

At the age of 15, Amber was selected to join Debbie Dorday’s "Burgundy’s Cabaret" dancers in Parnell, Auckland, where she gained invaluable experience. She was also a member of the Sky City Cheerleaders for two years and has performed at numerous corporate events and functions.

Sherilyn was born in Auckland and trained at the National Ballet School in Wellington. While there, she gained the RAD Scholarship to study at the Royal Ballet School in London and within a year, was invited to join the Sadler’s Wells Royal Ballet Company, later to become the Birmingham Royal Ballet, under the directorship of Sir Peter Wright. Sherilyn was soon promoted to Principal Dancer, dancing all the major classical roles while working with many renowned directors and choreographers.

During her later years with the company, Sherilyn moved into a teaching role and has also studied closely with respected teacher, Eileen Ward, who has been a major influence and guide.

Since retiring from the company, Sherilyn has free-lanced as a teacher both in England and other countries. She has been a guest teacher for the Royal NZ Ballet Company and taught at the New Zealand School of Dance.

At the end of 2000, Sherilyn was invited to take over the directorship of the International Ballet Academy in Christchurch. Under her leadership, the Academy is fast becoming one of the foremost full-time classical training schools in New Zealand.
