Louise has been developing her performance skills since she was a child. She was the youngest of five children and was always determined to outshine her other siblings. Louise began classical ballet training at a young age and continued her dance training all the way through to university level where she studied a Bachelor of Creative Industries (Visual Arts/ Art History) at the Queensland University of Technology. Her creativity and love for physical expression finally lead her to Circus. Between 2005-2006, she undertook a Diploma of Circus Arts at Circo Arts in New Zealand.
