Experience of dance: Sian has been dancing since she was practically walking. With an extensive background in Jazz and many years of experience in Lyrical and Hip Hop Sian soon found her passion to lie in the creation of stunning hip hop routines that visually astound their audiences. Beginning Hy-Fidelity was a natural progression in her dance career in wanting to offer a dance education that centred on growth, constant inspiration and guidance for the students and the encouragement and support to reach for their biggest dreams, highest goals and aspirations. Sian has found her niche in creating routines that accolade locally, nationally and internationally. She has the perfect balance between finding her students strengths and inspiring them to not just be limited by what they are naturally good at. Sian’s students thrive and are encouraged to grow, evolve and create, this is where she creates her choreographic magic.

I aspire to continue to inspire dancers to broaden and grow their talents, to embrace their inner athlete to pursue greatness on all levels. To have Hy-Fidelity widely known as a safe and creative space for all dancers, to grow and bind the dance and arts community together – “community over competition”
