Brylee Mills, a remarkable dancer and motivational speaker, has an inspiring story of resilience and determination.


Born in Auckland, Mills began dancing at a very young age. Despite losing her left arm in a car accident at six, she never let go of her dream to be a dancer. Her unwavering determination led her to train at one of Australia’s premier dance schools, Brent Street, where she studied classical and contemporary dance. Upon returning to New Zealand, she continued to pursue her passion, performing as a professional dancer with contemporary dance companies like Trip The Light and Touch Compass Dance Company​​​​.

During her high school years, Mills attended Hastings Girls’ High School and Western Springs College, actively participating in Stage Challenge®. She took on leadership roles in the 2012 and 2013 Stage Challenges, gaining valuable experience and learning to overcome various challenges as a team. Mills fondly remembers the excitement, the sense of community, and the school spirit that came with these performances​​​​.

In 2016, Mills expanded her influence by becoming a motivational speaker. Since then, she has traveled throughout New Zealand, sharing her story and inspiring young people living with disabilities, motivating them to pursue their goals. Her journey is not only a testament to her own strength and resilience but also serves as a source of inspiration and empowerment for others facing challenges in their lives​​​​.
