This week, Bonnie is speaking to Sarah Alice Burns, professional backing dancer and artist development coach born and raised in Perth, Australia!

Sarah worked with Beyoncé for four continuous years, performing alongside Beyoncé at THAT infamous Super Bowl performance, countless award shows, The Beyoncé Visual Album, The Mrs. Carter Show World Tour and the worldwide IVY PARK campaign.

Sarah has also danced for musical icons: Brandy, Jay-Z, DJ Khaled, Meek Mill, Drake, Jennifer Lopez, Pitbull, Janelle Monáe, Kelly Rowland, Usher, Ne-Yo, Hailee Steinfeld and many more.

It’s INSANE what Sarah has achieved, and we’re going to find out just what it was like to go behind the scenes of Beyoncé’s creative process from auditions and rehearsals, to the iconic shows that have shaped our generation. Most importantly, this is a story of believing in yourself, your dreams and your talent.

We hope you LOVE this. Enjoy, kick, back, relax and go on this journey to the biggest stages in the world.

Alongside LiLi's dance career, LiLi co-founded the Dancers Network - a community of experienced, passionate dancers making big changes in the dance industry to ensure hard working, highly skilled dancers are paid proportionately to their worth, while also leading the conversation of equality for all.

What’s so interesting about Li Li’s story is not just the success she’s had, but the mindset behind the success, and how she’s bringing her human experience to everything she does.
