Whilst living in the Kapiti Community Alicia developed her love for dance and stage performing from an early age.

Her vision was to help children and the youth of Kapiti, reach their full potential through creativity and confidence with performing arts as the platform. Her tremendous success has seen student numbers continue to grow.

 Teaching drama, dance and choreography has also seen her involved with the Paraparaumu College Roadshow, Kapiti College Stage Challenge, School Productions across Kindergartens and Schools in Kapiti as well as creating numerous educational holiday programmes with a difference.

 Alicia’s skills in event management and performance are often seen at community events: Kapiti’s Community Centre Race Relations Festival “Fusion”, Kapiti's Got Talent, Kapiti Food Fair, Christmas at Nga Manu, Christmas in the Car Park, Kapiti Parent and Child Expo’s and various School Gala’s and Community Family Fun Days.
