What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreTeagan loves every aspect of Irish dance. She fell in love with the music and steps at a young age. She has spent countless hours working on strength, flexibility & musicality as she pursues competitive goals. She loves being part of the community- the friends and competitors she has met has made her stronger as a dancer and as a person. She loves the challenges of competition. She loves the magic of dancing with others, perfectly in sync moving as one, she never gets tired of that feeling.
She looks up to the older dancers, she studies how they train, mimics their technique, learns how to be a leader for dancers younger than her. She adored Amy Mae Dolan & Mackenzie Mahler- both top world dancers and professional dancers. She says she looks up to her mom who is one of her coaches and also Irish danced!
Watching her learn to understand the importance of putting in the work to reach a goal then seeing her stumble onstage but being able to shake it off and focus on what comes next and not give up. She has become a role model for the beginners as a dancer and as a mentally and physically strong person.
