From a very young age, the art of dance has always been a passion of Lindsay’s. She began her training at 3 years old at Dance Elite Studio for the Arts, under the direction and mentorship of Marnie Palmer-Lang. While a dancer at the studio, Lindsay trained in numerous dance styles including ballet, jazz, tap, lyrical, contemporary, musical theatre, modern and acrobatics and was able to spend 12 years on the competitive team. As a company member, Lindsay competed in numerous competitions across the GTA as well as completed jazz and ballet examinations with the Canadian Dance Teachers Association (CDTA). Lindsay is now a certified dance instructor as an Associate Member with the CDTA.

In September of 2012, Lindsay began her post-secondary education at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario studying Psychology. While completing her studies, Lindsay became actively involved in Laurier’s dance program both as a dancer and an instructor. In her final year at Laurier, Lindsay took on the role of Dance Coordinator working for the university’s Athletics and Recreation Department in addition to her instructing position. Under Lindsay’s direction, Laurier’s dance program grew significantly and was the most successful year that the program has had to date.
