When it comes to ballet, Caitlyn Martin is definitely en pointe.
The eight-year-old Point Cook dancer had a busy 2016, placing first in six different competitions over the course of last year.
The most recent was the Follow Your Dreams competition at Ballarat, where she was the highest scorer of the under 8 category.
Reflecting on the competition, Caitlyn said she’d been very nervous and did not think she’d win. “I was very shocked when my name was called out and super excited,” she said.
The grade three Heathdale Christian College student, who dances at Point Cook Performing Arts, has been dancing since she was just two years old, and she has no plans to stop.
“I would love to dance for the Australian Ballet, like Lana Jones,” she said.
