Finley
Finley Kovacs learned to crawl, walk and now dance in the halls and studio of Kirkwood Academy of Performing Arts. Before she could dance herself, she was on the side lines of rehearsals watching her siblings dance to the music of Coppelia and the Nutcracker suite. When she was old enough to take a ballet class herself, she started in the little pinkie class and has never taken a season off since. Fin is in her 3rd year in the Kirkwood Academy of Arts pre-professional program. There she has grown in all forms of dance but focuses on her first love – classical ballet. Fin has done many festivals and competitions across Vancouver Islands and awarded many scholarships along the way. She was given invitation to attend Synergy provincials in 2022 for her classical Ballet solo. In 2019, Fin was cast as the party mouse for Kirkwood Academy Nutcracker production. Fin has a very warm and lovely presence on stage that invites audiences to see her creative and spunky personality. When not in the studio Fin loves to draw, make puppet shows with her siblings and create amazing stories with drawings for her ballet teachers and younger sister to enjoy. Fin got a small taste of NCB company last season as a featured artist in the production of Clockwork. She is looking forward to a season of growth and development, exploring contemporary Ballet alongside many friends at NCB petites.
