Dance transforms people by exposing them to a whole new way of getting a message across. There are so many things that can be said through dance, and I believe that it’s a strong way to transform communication.

In 2014 she started training and performing with Catapult Dance Choreographic Hub’s youth program the ‘Flipside Project’; directed by Cadi McCarthy.

This year will be Meg’s third time attending and performing at the Australian Youth Dance Festival as part of the Flipside Project, where she is thrilled to be a Youth Ambassador.

When I dance there are endless possibilities. I think that it is phenomenal that in dance you can create anything and it can take you anywhere. Dance for me is collaborating with all kinds of people with all kinds of dance styles, to create an art that touches people in different ways.
