Averie’s dance journey began with learning the style of tap during her younger years with a small program in Riverton, called RiverTap. Growing up in a small community didn’t offer a lot of dance opportunities, so it wasn’t until she was 16 and able to drive herself out of town for dance classes where she really started to find her love of dance.

She began with ballet through the RWB Satellite program, then quickly became obsessed with wanting to grow and learn more styles of dance. Averie joined the competitive program at a local studio in Winnipeg, competing in jazz, tap, ballet, lyrical, and hip hop for 4 years.

After moving on from competing, Averie joined two professional performance companies to perform at various events around the city where she gained plenty of knowledge in the professional industry.

Some of Averie’s highlights include performing in the Magic Kingdom Parade and choreographing a piece performed in EPCOT in Disney World, dancing in the Winnipeg Tattoo Show, performing back up for various local artists/drag queens, and appearing in rural video projects through Theatre Projects Manitoba.

Currently, Averie is teaching dance in her home town through her own dance program, and is continuing to perform and train around Winnipeg!
