She fell in love with dance at a young age and since then has continued to train intensively in acrobatics, tumbling, jazz, contemporary, hip hop, ballet, pointe, and tap. Austyn grew up competing and attending conventions in Canada and the United States as well as representing Canada in the IDO World Championship in Poland where her passion and unique style led her to receive many high scores, awards, bursaries, and scholarships.
Austyn currently trains at Harbour Dance in their Intensive Training Program with director Moe Brody. Austyn strives to continually progress her dance and acrobatic skills, and whenever she is able, takes local workshops, masterclasses, and intensives.

On these projects she’s worked with renowned choreographers such as Heather Laura Gray, Louise Hradsky and Paul Becker. Austyn loves working in film and strives to make a career out of doing so whether it be dancing, stunting, or choreographing.
