Jen is our owner and head coach.  Jen has been certified by USA Gymnastics, has taught all-around gymnastics and tumbling and has extensive knowledge in cheerleading. She wants to be able to provide kids with a way to have fun and learn to tumble and dance, but also to learn proper technique to avoid injury both short-term and long-term. She majored in child development at the U (Go Utes!), loves working with kids and is an adrenaline junkie. Her favorite dance styles are Latin ballroom and hip hop, but she loves to choreograph all styles of dance. Her choreography has won numerous awards and competitions and conventions and she has created National Champions out of her students. Jen took two of her students under her wing, and in two short years made them the 2018 National Amateur Dancesport Champions in Junior I & II Rhythm.

Tiana has been dancing since the age of five and has trained in ballet, jazz, hip hop, and contemporary. She danced at a few different studios including Xcite and Ethos. She is a three year member of Alta High School Dance Company where she served as the president and head choreographer.

She has taken various classes in New York at Broadway Dance Center, Alvin Ailey and Steps.  She has worked with choreographers such as Diego Ballesteros, Kylie Bronk, Alan Salazar, Kirra Cook, and previous Cougarettes Erika Cox and Olivia Simons.

Dance has always been a passion of hers. She hopes to be able to share all that she has learned throughout her life with the dancers that she teaches.
