Makaihlah Stover:
“Makaihlah started dancing at the age of 14. Her passion for dance grew rapidly and it has been her whole life since. She’s been teaching/choreographing for 11 years and is so blessed that her love for dance led her to The Dance Pitt. Makaihlah has won numerous awards regionally and nationally for her choreography. While teaching for TDP she also travels the Midwest doing freelance choreography for other studios and dance teams.
Watching dancers grow and mold into their own artist is something that truly inspires her. She loves to watch dancers be pushed to the limits they did not know existed inside of them! Makaihlah is in her fourth year teaching at TDP and is anxious to see what the future has in store for our dance family!”
