Morgan started dancing at the age of 3 at Christine’s Dance Studio in Orange, CA. Attending mainly ballet classes she also enjoyed tap and jazz. In junior high she started as a teacher’s assistant and often filled in for other teacher’s classes. Morgan attended summer intensives and trained with Ballet Pacifica, Nevada Ballet Theater and Joffrey Ballet. At 13 she auditioned for and was accepted into the Classical Contemporary Dance Department and the Commercial Dance Department at the Orange County High School of the Arts. She chose Classical ballet as it has always been her love and passion. There she studied classical ballet, modern and pointe under many well known teachers and choreographers.  Her sophomore year of high school she suffered a hip injury that prevented her from dancing for years. After finding an awesome doctor and healing from the injury her love of dance has brought her here to Aspire Academy to jump back into the dancing world and share her love of dance with young and excited students. She plans to receive her Bachelor of Arts in Dance.

Morgan moved to Port Angeles, WA a year and half ago from Orange County, CA with her husband Kyle who is in the United States Coast Guard.
