Mia Marino

Mia Marino is a professional dancer who began her training at the age of three in Spain, where she was first introduced to flamenco. She continued her dance education in Virginia, where she began studying classical ballet, and later in Japan, where she expanded her training to contemporary, jazz, hip-hop, and other styles. As a military child, Mia had the unique opportunity to train and experience dance communities around the world.

After moving to San Diego, Mia attended the San Diego School of Creative and Performing Arts, where she trained intensively every day. During her time at SCPA, she performed at both the Regional High School Dance Festival and the National High School Dance Festival.

She went on to earn her B.F.A. in Dance Performance from the University of California, Irvine in 2024, continuing to develop her artistry through rigorous training and performance opportunities.

Since graduating, Mia has pursued freelance dance work and performed professionally, including as a dancer for EDC Las Vegas 2026. Her diverse training and international upbringing have shaped her into a versatile performer with a strong foundation in classical technique and a passion for exploring movement across styles. Alongside her dance career, she works full-time as a Marketing Specialist in the fitness industry.
