Angie at a very young age loved to dance and sing. By the age of 5 she started dancing at Compos Dance Studio in Lake Elsinore, California. She started taking technique classes and made their competitive teams which she competed in hip hop, contemporary, jazz and ballet. While dancing Angie also played club soccer. Angie juggled both sports for many years, while she was very good at both sports, her heart was in dance so she then made the decision to fully focus all her time on dance. Angie was eager to learn and grow as a Dancer and at 13 years old Angie joined JDI Dance Company where she has trained under Kali Clugston, Taci Devries, Cayti Johnson, and Kassidy Chism. Angie competed on JDI’s Top Elite teams that consecutively took 1st place overalls and was awarded the highest scoring routines of the competition. Dancing full time at JDI and on her high school dance team she has been able to take classes from Mark Meismer, Blake Mcgrath, Martha Nichols, JoJo Gomez, Jason Parsons, Jayy Hancock, Chantel Aguirre, Phil Wright, and Travis Wall. Angie is currently a student attending Palomar College where she is working towards her degree in Business Administration. At 14 years old Angie began assisting with the younger competition teams. Angie joined our staff in our 16th Season which she assists many recital classes and competition teams here at JDI along with working the front desk. She loves helping dancers grow, making family connections, and being a part of JDI. Not only has JDI been her dance studio, it has been a second home and a second family.
