Travis Taylor's BIO

My name is Travis Taylor. I was born on 27th of October in 1992. I live in Gunnedah (The koala capital of the world), a rural town just 45mins from the Country Music Capital Tamworth. I left High School just one term into Year 11 to pursue my dancing career in teaching, choreographing, competing, adjudicating and I am also in the works of my own DJ/Entertainment business which will see my close friend Aaron Kelly and Chad McDonald helping me whilst I'm in my dancing travels!

I first started line dancing at the age of 2 with my mother Vicki under the teaching of Doris Holledge of Gunnedah Bootscooters in mid 90’s & I have not looked back since.My passion for choreography was first realized when I was 9 years of age and since then I have choreographed 8 awarded dances with 5 of those winning dances in various Australian Competitions and Championships. I love to choreograph dances with other “Professionals” because it gives me a chance to get their perspective and learning various techniques to become a better dancer & choreographer through the early stage of choreography.

In 2008, I entered in the Australian National Choreography Championships and my dance "Looking 4 U" came first with it also being highest scored dance of that day. Also in 2009 at the Australian National Choreography Championships I won with my dance "Cry Baby" and also my "Pieces Don't Fit Anymore" came first in the "Intermediate Waltz Section". Those 2 years will be with me forever and I'd still like to thank Mark for dancing my dances with me :-)

 I have co-written dances with the likes of Maddison Glover, Kevin & Maria Smith, Cathryn Proudfoot, Adrian Lefebour, Linda & Mitchell Burgess, Simon Ward, Philip Sobrielo and my extended family Mark & Kate Simpkin. I am also one of the youngest choreographers and instructors here in Australia with the guidance of many instructors from Australia and World-Wide.

I have been dancing with Mark & Kate (Southern Cross Line Dancers) for two years now and have never looked back. They are really a great group of people (who know how to have a lot of fun) and whom I consider my extended family. I really like to spend as much time with Mark & Kate as much as possible because it gives me a chance to follow in their footsteps. They have been so good to me and I'm so honered to be under their guidance. In 2009, The Australian Line Dance Community voted for "Winner At A Losing Game" both choreographed by Mark & Myself for "Intermediate/Advanced Dance Of The Year". It placed runner up with "God Must Be Busy" choreographed by a very talented choreographer, Tim Gauci. The winner of that section went to Jenny Hughes "Everlasting Love" which topped the most taught dance in Australia for that time. In my spare time I like to spend time with my friends and family either partying, catching up at Macdonalds (Local Gunnedah Hangout ;) having lots of fun and just out and about enjoying life. I enjoy travelling and meeting new people either with dancing or life in general.

Line dance is and always will be a huge part of me & I have made so many friends over the 10+ years I’ve been line dancing… I intend to travel as much as I can to meet new people and share my talent with them, on and off the dance floor.

2010 sees me booked for workshops in Perth *February 2010* - New Zealand *June 2010* - Also various other venues around Australia.
