Mia, shown here in her favorite recital costume, was drawn into the art of dance when she first watched a tape of Tap Dogs. As a young pup, she spent hours mimicking her favorite performers from the video. For her third birthday, Mia received a customized pair quad of K360s. She went on to study many styles of dance and became known best for her striking interpretation of Petting on the Ritz. Although falling short of achieving her Broadway goals, her love of dance has never been greater. She is excited to be joining the DANJ family and looks forward to meeting everyone. Mia's advice for young dancers? We asked, and although her answer came with pause, it was simple and profound: "Walk the Talk."

Mia attended ABT (Airedales: Beloved Terriers) University receiving an MA degree in improvisational dance. After her masters thesis "Unleashing the Dancer in You" was published in 2008, it was proclaimed to be among the greatest American dogma. Mia shops at Cherrybrook for her accessories and dance supplies.
