As we continue onto our next legendary dancer who has been a shaker and a mover in the industry we turn to our Mr. Michael. Mr. Michael Littlefield teaches one of our most popular contemporary classes at Dancer’s Gallery in Cooper City, Florida. • We asked Mr. Michael who his person was and after a few seconds he said Mia Michaels! He then procedded to tell us a few fun facts about the well know dancer, choreographer, judge, author etc. Everyone knows Mia Michaels mostly from her time on SYTYCD.

Seek the Uncomfortable • “Seek the uncomfortable” is a teaching Mia Michaels often goes by. A place where a lot of people do not dare to go. Could this be one of the keys to her success? We think maybe…it is definetly a factor. Of course Mia’s upbringing and journey early on helped as well. Mia was born in Coconut Grove, Florida, to a family of dancers. • Her father and dance teacher, Joe Michaels, taught her jazz, tap and ballet, while her sister, Dana, taught her contemporary dance. Though she began her training with members of her family, she also trained at Miami Conservatory, the Miami Performing Arts Center and Michigan's Interlochen Arts Academy, as well as, the New World School of the Arts.
