D'Arcy is a big anime fan and enjoys reading manga, taking motivation and inspiration from the stories.

Outside of the ballet studio D'Arcy is a qualified personal trainer and an avid volleyball player.


“Training hard to build unbreakable foundations in our classical technique allows us the freedom to truly get lost in the characters we portray and provide audiences with a tangible story that they can connect with. I’ll always be inspired and motivated to vicariously experience those character’s emotions and give audiences a performance they’ll never forget!”

We acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we work and perform. Long before we performed on this land, it played host to the dance expression of our First Peoples. We pay our respects to their Elders — past, present and emerging — and acknowledge the valuable contribution they have made and continue to make to the cultural landscape of this country.
