Megan Dionne
Hip hop teacher
Passionate about dance since the age of 2, I discovered, over the years, the style that suited me best: hip hop. I have competed for a long time as a soloist or member of a duo, a trio and different groups. The stage is a place where I feel free and happy. In addition to competitions, I also danced during World Weekends at Parc Jean Drapeau, at Relais pour la vie, during the Châteauguay Christmas parades and during an evening to raise funds for disabled people. I often assisted teachers at the studio, but I was officially promoted at the beginning of 2023. It's a pleasure to be able to choreograph for young people who have the same passion as me. Since the summer of 2023, I have managed to join the Bee-Yond Teen dance program where I learn to get out of my comfort zone and get to know myself better.
