Ilyan Keay
Ilyan is the founder and head coach at AcroPals. AcroPals was created to incorporate all of the styles of Dance and Gymnastics Ilyan competed in, without the high pressure, slow, painful and exhausting training she endured as a child.
“Through AcroPals I have tried to create movement training for all levels that inspires students to strive to be the best Acrobats they can be for life and not just for the next trick.”
I was an elite Gymnast who was awarded a scholarship to the AIS at 10 years old.
By 14 I was a National Champion Trampolinist, national medalist in Sports Acrobatics and by 16 a National Squad member and two time International medalist in Trampolining. I was awarded many prestigious accolades including a Sporting Blue Award, Layne Beachly Reach for the Stars nomination and 2 x NSW Athlete of the Year.
