Mya started dancing at the age of 3 and has been dancing competitively for the past 8 years. She trains at Affinity Dance in jazz, ballet, pointe, tap, lyrical, contemporary, modern, stage and hip hop. Known for her work ethic and being detail oriented, Mya loves how dance allows her to express herself through movement.
A highlight of 2021 for Mya was being chosen as the winner at the BC Provincial Festival of the Arts for her lyrical and stage solos. Mya recently worked as a dancer on the short film, Hairy Beast in Vancouver BC, which has sparked her interest in acting. She regularly attends conventions and workshops to enhance her training and to take classes with those in the industry who she looks up to.
When she isn’t in the dance studio, Mya is a passionate student at her local high school where she has won several awards for her academic and volunteer efforts. In her spare time, this former competitive swimmer is carrying her speed down the local mountains on her bike in the summer or her skis in the winter. She cares about the environment and wants to make a difference in reducing climate change.
