Sri Louise has been dancing since the age of four. She attributes her love of dance to her mother, Jane Brandley, who taught ballet in the basement of their home.
Sri's concept of dance was derived mainly through Hollywood musical movies. When her father saw her perform in Sarah Michelson's first choreography in San Francisco, 1990, he retorted, "She'll never get to Broadway doing this kind of work!"
And so it was...
Carving an independent career for herself, she has danced with various artists in Chicago, San Francisco, New York, Austria and Belgium.
Most notably she served as physical coach for Sidi Larbi Cherkoui on his duet Zero Degrees with Akram Khan in London 2006, which led to assisting Cherkaoui on chroepgraphic productions for The Ballet of Monte Carlo and the Cullberg Ballet, Stokholm.
Sri was a featured performer in Cherkaoui's Myth, which premiered at the Desingle in Antwerp, Belgium in 2007
