FROM small beginnings as a toddler in a dance studio in Myrtleford, Zoe Cavedon has made a splash in the dance industry across the world. She began learning dance at the age of three and said she was always quite an athletic child, embracing the extreme physicality required to be a dancer. “I remember feeling the excitement preparing for performances and knowing that my family and community would be watching,” she said. “Meaningful friendships were formed through sharing the stage with dancers from all over the North East, which I still have to this day. “As I matured, the love for athleticism evolved into a passion of being able to express emotion through movement. “I feel the most present and in the moment when I am dancing.” At 10, she began training with Tim Podesta in Wodonga (now artistic director at Projection Dance Company), and her dance career has grown exponentially from there. “I was exposed to the arts and dance industry, which sparked my ambition to pursue dance professionally through his mentoring,” Zoe said. “The desire to achieve my short and long term goals shaped the path that I chose. “I trained for international ballet competitions, which presented the opportunity to dance in front of the directors of prestigious international ballet schools.
