Patricia Hayes Cavanagh began dancing at age 4 in ballet, and at age 11 started training in contemporary. She fully transitioned from ballet to contemporary at age 15 and began searching for further training and opportunities.

At QL2, Patricia was able to expand her knowledge and understanding of dance, herself, and the world that she lives in. Graduating year 12 in 2018, she went on to complete her Advanced Diploma in Elite Performance at Sydney Dance Company’s Pre-Professional Year. Since returning to Canberra, she began an internship with QL2 and Australian Dance Party to further develop her artistry and practice.
