Ava began her performance training with TLA at the age of 3 and has been an assistant teacher since 2014 and later full time independent teacher in 2025, working with all age groups and providing private 1-to-1 sessions. Ava later secured additional training with Phoenix Youth Academy to enhance her training in contemporary dance. She has now progressed with this route further in obtaining a position at the prestigious Northern School of Contemporary Dance in their Contemporary Dance (BA) course; allowing her to pursue her passion in this career path. 

She primarily excels in Contemporary and Jazz dance. Additionally she has competed in the Dance World Cup, earned an A** in her Dance GCSE, and is predicted to achieve the same in her Dance A Level. Her expertise extends to ACRO, Tap, Ballet, and Street Dance, where she has won numerous group and solo awards. In 2024 Ava acquired her Module One Certification with Acrobatic Arts, enabling her to provide Acro training to students. 

In 2023 and 2024, Ava was appointed Head Girl at TLA, a role she fulfilled with dedication, making significant contributions to TLA's development. 

Currently Ava is developing the choreography for TLA’s upcoming show ‘Which Witch”, primarily focusing on Contemporary movement and Acro.
