Mia got her start at a young age in musical theatre, after discovering a love of performance during her time as a competitive cheerleader.

She has trained in acting and vocal performance, as well as a variety of solo dance styles including jazz, tap, ballet, and contemporary.

Partner dancing is the creative marriage of everything she loves: music, dancing, performing, and improvisation.

Lately she has expanded her studies and teaching to include functional movement and gait analysis through the methodology of Anatomy in Motion, which she uses to give dance students better access to the possible movement within their own bodies.
