Riley Flowers
Hello, my name is Riley Flowers and I'm so excited to join Voyage Performing Arts! Originally from Madras, I have 16 years of dance experience from Madras Dance Arts Unlimited with a background in Ballet, all Jazz styles, Tap, Hip-Hop, Hula and Musical Theater. For 5 of those years I assisted and taught Ballet, Jazz and Hip-Hop. Additionally, I was a High-school Varsity Cheerleader for 4 years and served as Cheer Captain. I took a break from dancing after high school, and during that time I had my sweet son. For the last year, I've renewed my love of dance at Madras Dance Arts Unlimited both dancing & assisting/teaching. Growing up, I viewed dance as my safe place and I can’t wait to share this passion with other young dancers!
"And those who were seen dancing were thought to be insane by those who could not hear the music." --Friedrich Nietzsche

Di Jensen
Di moved to Redmond six years ago from Las Vegas, where she and her husband of 16+ years were married and raised their four kids. Their family also includes a rescued Goldendoodle, Maile, and a cat named Lynx. Growing up, Di loved taking dance classes, and that passion for movement eventually led her to group fitness. She earned her first certification in High Fitness in 2021 and has since added UpBeat Barre, UpBeat Lift, and YO to her certifications. Today, she teaches five to six classes a week at Redmond Athletic Club and loves helping people get stronger, build confidence, and have fun while working out. When she's not at the gym, you'll find Di traveling, hiking, spending time at the lake or river, making memories with her family, or just chilling at home.

Junior Teacher
Aubree DeAmicis
Hi, my name is Aubree! I have been dancing for 6 years now. This year is my 4th year competing! Dance has become something very special to me throughout the years. Not only has dance given me friends that will last forever, but it has given me a family and experiences I will never forget. I started teaching dance classes last year and immediately fell in love with it. Being able to see students grow and learn is something that I am so grateful for. I'm so excited to continue teaching this year and years after!

Junior Teacher
Alyssa Tarabochia
Hi, my name is Alyssa! I have been dancing since I was three, and I started competing when I was six! My favorite styles of dance are contemporary, lyrical, and musical theatre. Some of my hobbies outside of dance include things like sketching, baking, and anything to do with art. My favorite thing about dance is that when I'm having a bad day, and I come to dance, it always cheers me up. I'm so excited for all the memories that we are going to make this year!

Junior Teacher

Hi! I’m Avery, and I’m so excited to be a part the first year at Voyage Performing Arts. Dance has been one of the biggest parts of my life for years. I’ve been dancing since I was 2, and I started competing at 7. I have been training with Hailey for the past 5 years in various styles including tap, lyrical, hip-hop, contemporary, jazz, musical theatre, and modern. My goal is to make a positive, encouraging environment where every student is supported, challenged, and inspired to grow while also having fun along the way. I can’t wait to share my passion with the next generation of dancers.
