I'm Melina

I have been dancing, acting, performing, teaching, and choreographing for the past 20 years throughout Western and Eastern Washington and Northern Idaho. I graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Dance from Western Washington University in June 2019. I have been trained in and teach ballet, tap, jazz, modern, contemporary, pointe, hip hop, lyrical, swing, acrobatics, acting, and musical theater dance. I have trained with Western Washington University Dance Program, Isabelle’s Dance Time, Laura Little Theatricals, Dance Emporium, and with Expressions School of Performing Arts where I also taught. I have been fortunate enough to take master classes with Koresh Dance, Momix Dance Company, Broadway Connections, Mia Michaels, tWitch, Mandy Moore, Jason Parsons, Al Blackstone, Robert Battle, Anthony Morigerato, the late Doug Caldwell, Ofer Ben, Avi Miller, and Vanessa Van Wormer. Other than dance and theater, I am a triathlete, avid weight lifter, runner, and overall gym enthusiast. I look forward to becoming a Kinesio Taping Practitioner and certified in NeuroKinetic Therapy.
