Bailey Hannen-Voice RTS

Bailey began dancing at six years of age and trained in both classical ballet, and modern jazz with well respected teachers Anne Harris, Glenys Scandrett, Valmai Robertson, Jemma Robertson, and Barbara Niven. She completed examinations up to and including advanced levels in both genres. She also trained in other styles including contemporary, lyrical, tap, and hip-hop. She enjoyed attending many workshops with incredible guest tutors to expand her knowledge and performance quality.

Bailey spent many hours assistant teaching, and studying technique, anatomy, and safe teaching procedures, and was asked to take over a large dance school when her teacher retired. Bailey then started her solo teaching venture and created BHV Dance Academy in 2014.

In 2015, Bailey received her bbodance Level 4 Teaching Diploma, followed by completing her AcroDance certifications, and she has continued to study and take examinations over the past 10 years to continue advancing her teaching skills.

Bailey believes that everyone who aspires to dance, should be given the tools and opportunity to be creative, and better themselves. Bailey hopes her passion for dance is passed down to her students, and their time in her classroom positively impacts the rest of their lives, regardless of the paths they take and careers they choose.
