Classes taught by: Bri Blonigan

Bri is thrilled to have the opportunity to be a part of creating a safe and empowering space where students can build confidence and joy through dance at Studio W. You can find her daughters, Joelle (7) and Mira (4), dancing here, too! With a lifelong passion for dance ignited at age 2, Bri’s extensive training in jazz, lyrical, ballet, hip hop, and tap shines through her choreography and teaching. Over 15 years in dance education, she has choreographed award-winning competitive pieces for dozens of high school dance teams and studios, and directed an International Baccalaureate Dance Program at a high school in Orange County for 4 years. Bri’s performance experience includes 11 years of competitive dance, 2 years in BARE Dance Company (Orange County), and 6 years in RhetOracle Dance Company (Long Beach).

Bri extended her movement education into the Pilates realm after a personal injury. Two Pilates certifications later, she opened a studio in San Diego and won the local newspaper’s “Best Pilates Studio” award each of the 5 years it was open 2015-2020). Her experience there deepened her understanding of body mechanics and rehabilitation. This knowledge informs her approach to teaching dance, and training young bodies to work from a place of mindfulness and strong technique.
