Progress DNA Wins A North Shore Local Business Award

Ms FELICITY WILSON (North Shore)

—I would like to congratulate Olivia Bowers from Progress DNA for being chosen as a 2025 North Shore Local Business Awards winner in the category of Performing Arts. Liv is the owner of Progress DNA. The dance studio first opened its doors in North Sydney in 2022 and is an amazing example of a female-led business growing and succeeding due to first-class leadership. An experienced dancer and choreographer, Liv has many years of solid experience as a performance artist, a teacher of performing arts and an adept administrator. Liv is supported in her work by a terrific team of professional dance instructors that are passionate about teaching their young students and getting the very best from them during performances. The business offers 80 classes per week, including ballet, contemporary, hip hop, jazz, acro and takes an approach that is supportive and positive towards each client to ensure their love of dance can flourish.
