Central Coast resident, Kyra Johnson, from Avoca Beach is pursuing her lifelong dream of being a successful dancer and choreographer after being offered a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to move to the United States to be a professional backup dancer.

Ms Johnson has been offered the opportunity by Bloc LA, a talent agency that provides dancers to the music industry in Los Angeles and across the United States.

Ms Johnson has been dancing since the age of two and has been involved with several dance studios in Australia including Art Dance Academy, Dance Energy and Milk Studios, as well as KCC elite hip hop Crew.

In 2024, Ms Johnson was the champion solo dancer at Danchello on the Gold Coast Queensland, a career highlight, and a testament to how skilful a dancer she is.
