Yvonne Goldsmith was born in Singapore and is of Singaporean and Australian decent. At the age of 4, Yvonne began training in violin and jazz ballet. From the age of 10, Yvonne became a member of many youth orchestras and chamber ensembles where Yvonne performed in countless concerts at the Sydney Opera House with reputable youth orchestras such as The Sydney Youth Orchestra (the regular orchestra for Carols in the Domain). Through music and dance, Yvonne has travelled around much of the world.

It was at the Conservatorium of Music High School where she was accepted on a scholarship, Yvonne's stage presence and love of performance was ignited. This love of expression and performance was further continued when she accepted a music scholarship offered to her by the reputable St Andrew's Cathedral School, Sydney.

Despite her natural multi-faceted gift and passion for music and dance, she rejected a scholarship to study at the Conservatorium of Music University despite having a Diploma in Violin with Honours (A.Mus.A); instead she opted for a business scholarship that she won at The University of Technology, Sydney.

Yvonne graduated her accelerated scholarship degree at the end of 2003, and is now working in corporate responsibility of the supply chain at one of Australia's largest banks.

It was the initiation of a small course of Salsa and Merengue classes at The University of Technology, Sydney that sparked Yvonne's passion for Latin Dance. Yvonne was instantly captivated by the rhythmic Latin American music and dance, which allowed her to combine her natural affinity for performing, her musical ability and previous dance training.

She is now one of Sydney’s most sought after choreographers, performers and instructors due to her innate sense of rhythm, musical interpretation and understanding and her uncanny ability to break down all areas of salsa dance technique.

The young Yvonne is known for her fire, energy, attitude and ladies styling. She is currently receiving  invitations to teach and perform at congresses and events around the world including places such as Puerto Rico, San Fransisco, UK, Rome, Milan, Brescia, Nettuno, Genova, Japan, Berlin, Texas, Hawaii, Dubai, Indonesia, Madrid, Malaysia, Singapore, New Zealand, Thailand, Indonesia, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth and Canberra. On a trip to LA, she was voted one of the sexiest salseras on www.salserosweb.com and she was spotted by movie producers whilst dancing in nightclubs for some upcoming movies.
