Lauren began her performance career as a rhythmic gymnast in Australia where she medalled nationally on many occasions. She was fortunate to train with many European professionals including former Junior European Champion and Olympic Finalist Valeria Vatkina and Prima Ballerina’s Viktoriya Titova (Kiev Ballet) and Valentina Pavlova (Bolshoi & Kremlin Ballet Companies).
Following 12 years in gymnastics, it was time to expand her talents to something more daring, burlesque and circus. Her specialty skills include aerial hoop & hammock, hula hoops, adagio and burlesque acts combining dance, contortion and the rhythmic gymnastics apparatus rope, hoop, ball, clubs and ribbon. She also enjoys performing the rhythmic gymnastics apparatus whilst on the aerial hoop such as ribbon, rope and ball which is a unique combination.
Lauren has performed in some of Australia’s most esteemed corporate events, charity balls and fashion shows. She was a popular soloist at Red Bennies Cabaret Club in Melbourne, Australia from 2010-2014. She has also featured in several Australian TV series including Underbelly Squizzy and Winners and Losers.
Lauren and her adagio partner Sidney have been the feature duo act touring with Sexpo Australia since 2013. She also performed a one year season at Draculas Cabaret Theatre Restaurant in their Bloodbath Show as their burlesque aerialist. Most recently, Lauren has been touring Europe with Stage Entertainment Touring Productions as a rhythmic gymnast and aerialist in Ice Age Live. Whether she is ribbon twirling, hula hooping or spinning in the air, Lauren amazes audiences with her flexibility, skill and charm!
