"I was thrilled to embark on the tours, which were an epic journey, with Jolin and the team again. It's nothing you have ever visually experienced," exclaimed Eden. "Everything was so amazingly extreme, from the lighting to the gigantic stage props, down to our incredible outfits. I mean, we’re even dancing with/operating a gigantic scorpion and wearing huge cartoon heads for some of the performance!"

What am I currently working on, “My priority is my US visa for my big move to LA this year, which is a process, but one I am willing to do with open arms. I’m so motivated to make my dream come true and was recently offered an incredible dance opportunity with one of LA’s best Choreographers and was also signed to one of the biggest talent agencies in the USA, which is very exciting! Moving to LA is the natural next step in advancing my dance career, there are so many more opportunities available.”

It validates that I am making a difference by sharing my talent, remaining true to who I am and proving that, with the right intentions, you can do anything you set your mind to, no matter your age or where you come from”.

Her indescribable X-Factor magic is what sets her apart, it’s something beyond technique or choreography. It’s a mix of her personality, presence, and authenticity, that draws the audience in and makes her unforgettable. Technical skills can be taught, but her X-factor is a natural energy and aura that radiates from within.

Dance has been all she’s loved and known most of her life, and of course there have been obstacles along the way, but she feels very blessed with her dance journey so far. It definitely hasn’t always been a smooth road, but that’s part of what makes her journey of incredible achievements so rewarding. Despite facing the adversity of being bullied, particularly during high school, Eden's resilience has become a driving force in her career. Plus dancing internationally, made her independent and self-reliant from a very young age. Reflecting on those challenges she faced, Eden shared, "I've learned that people often project their insecurities onto you, which gave me the confidence to believe in myself more. What I do isn’t as easy as it looks, and I’m proud of overcoming my obstacles, as they led me to where I am today, especially at my age.

It’s shaped me as a dancer and helped me survive in this cut throat industry. It also taught me that hard work, discipline, kindness, mindfulness, supporting others and knowing your worth will get you far. I like to think I've truly inspired others by showing that if I can do it, they can too. Every experience, good or bad, has never been taken for granted. It pushes me to grow, making each victory even more meaningful." Keeping fit, looking after her body with regular physio, and leading a healthy balanced lifestyle is also important for career longevity.
