Meghan Lensmeyer began dancing at age three at a studio in Michigan. As she became more serious about her dancing, she began her pre-professional training at Spotlight Dance Works, a highly ranked competition studio in Michigan. There, she studied many different styles of dance including ballet, contemporary, tap, jazz, lyrical, improvisation, ballroom and hip-hop. While training at Spotlight, she participated in many acclaimed pre-professional intensives including: Hubbard Street’s Advanced Summer Intensive, Peridance Teen Summer Intensive, Complexions and The Dance Sessions.
Following her high school years, she furthered her training by attending UNCSA in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. There she is studying to obtain a B.F.A. in Contemporary Dance and a minor in Arts Management. While studying at UNCSA, she has been exposed to a range of dance styles and techniques, some including counter technique, West African, Limón, Trisha Brown technique, Cunningham and Ballet. Her performance opportunities have included new works by Anthony Brynat, Andrew Harper, and Gina Patterson and repertory works by choreographers such as Shen Wei, Ming Lung-Yang and José Limón.
During her breaks from school she has attended several dance intensives, some being Hubbard Street Create Summer Dance Intensive, BODYTRAFFIC intensive, and Orsolina28 ‘23. Meghan is excited to further her potential and push boundaries through learning new ideas from different companies and dancers around the world. She plans to do this through hard work and connections made within the industry.
