    Anuki has been dancing since she was 2 years old, starting out with traditional and classical styles such as Ballet, Contemporary, Jazz, Kandyan and Bharatanatyam, consistently training in these styles well into university life. She started delving into hip hop in high school and after discovering Street Groove (@street_groove) in 2015, she's stuck with them ever since. Being in Street Groove has given her so many opportunities to level up as both a dancer and a choreographer, learning and loving so many foundations of dance as well as creating so many connections to the wider dance community. She eventually joined Hood Dance Academy later in 2020, which helped further her dance journey even more. Anuki has most recently directed the successful annual Street Groove showcase 'Find Your Groove' in 2022, and has also directed two Asian-pop focused showcases 'QUINTESSENCE' in 2021 and 2022 for the QUT Asian Pop Society.

    Her dance passion is also fuelled by her love for KPOP, learning major hits on her own for years until eventually forming her own team called Cider Dance (@ciderdance) in 2015 to learn KPOP choreography and even do their own little projects from time to time, all uploaded to their YouTube channel. She wanted to spread the love of KPOP dance to more people in our community, and as a founding member of QUTAPS (@qutapsofficial), she started offering KPOP dance classes at beginner levels so anyone could learn their favourite choreographies in a fun and safe environment. These classes have been successfully running to this day since 2017! Since then she has directed three successful dance showcases (both choreography and kpop focused), has entered many KPOP dance competitions with her team Cider Dance (including the annual 'KPOP World Festival' in Sydney representing QLD, Crossover Dance KPOP Summit, K-Cover Dance Festival, etc.), and has performed with Cider as one of the main acts in the 'Aussie Kpoppers United Concert' which run as part of the annual BrisAsia festivals.

    Anuki's personal dance style is a culmination of everything she's learned since day one of her own dance journey, with a heavy influence from hip hop and house foundations. She takes inspiration from everyone around her and purely dances for the sake of having fun. Hope everyone will enjoy the class!
