Hi R-Phils Fans!!
My Name is Lauren and I am proud to say this is my first year as a Reading Phillies Dancer. I am originally from West Pittston, Pa, which is about two hours from the R-Phils stadium. I am going in to my sophomore year at Kutztown University where I am majoring in Speech Communications and minoring in Musical Theatre and Voice performance as well. I have been a dancing basically my entire life - ever since my first ballet class at the age of two. Ever since stepping foot in a dance studio, dance has become a huge passion of mine and I hope to one day own my own studio.
I have studied all areas of dance including ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, modern, pointe, hip hop, ect. I started teaching dance about 4 years ago and have continued to do so. Teaching has been an incredible experience for me as I have had the amazing opportunity to watch little girls grow as not only dancers, but people as well. I must say that dance has brought me through some of the hardest moments in my life and has contributed to who I am as a person in so many ways.
Being a Reading Phillies dancer has been an absolute honor since day one! I have to admit that we are more like a family than a team. We all support and encourage each other which makes being a part of this organization so great. I would encourage anyone who has a love for dance to try out for the R-Phils! It's well worth it, I promise!
Lauren
