Miah Pullen

Owner

I was born and raised in Texas, and began dancing at the age of two. My passion for dance was intensified in high school when I was on the high school's drill team, which is one of the oldest drill teams in the state of Texas. On the team I served as Junior Lt. and Co-Captain my senior year, where I enhanced my dance skills, but also my leadership skills. After high school and entering college, I started renting out a local studio to teach dance team prep classes for dancers who wanted to try out for the high school dance team. The business eventually grew enough to where I was able to open her own studio in August 2017, where in my first year open I ended the season with 180 dancers! The studio now has around 300 dancers. I wanted to keep expanding my love and passion for dance, hence the Abilene location! Also in February 2021, we launched our online dance studio for kids, Dance with Me. I have also been the coordinator for the Angelo State Angelettes dance team for 3 years, and I'm a college instructor at Howard College. I have been married to my husband Ronnie (and now business partner) for over two years and we have two whippets, Ellie and Brock. ​ 

Teresa Winegeart

Dance Instructor

I began my dance career when I was 3 years old in Lubbock, Texas at The Dance Gallery. My love for dance took off and has never ended. I was trained in ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop, and later in pointe. As I grew up I was given many different opportunities to grow in skill and performance ability through intensives, competitions, camps, and performances. As a freshman in high school I even had the opportunity to dance in the Disneyland Christmas Parade. Throughout middle school and high school, I worked closely with dance professors at Texas Tech University for many different productions. I had always dreamed of becoming a collegiate dancer. My dreams came true my senior year when I tried out and made the ASU Angelettes. I am currently pursuing my MBA online through Texas Tech University and work full-time for Angelo State University as the Student Programs and Activities Coordinator.

Genie Kim

Dance Instructor

I am originally from Busan, South Korea. I had begun my dance training here in San Angelo at the age of 3 years old. After my dance instructor discontinued teaching, I took a break until I grew interest in becoming a Tex-Ann. I served 3 years being a member on the team and was truly humbled with the opportunity of taking the role as Senior Lieutenant my senior year. I learned many things being on the team including leadership, confidence and perseverance. I enjoyed all variations of dance but my strength lies in technique and kick, in which I achieved an award for in HTE Kick Academy in 2015. I am thrilled to be sharing my knowledge and passion for dance to others and my goal is to help my students achieve to their fullest potential. I am currently a Sophomore at Angelo State University pursing a degree in Nursing and Psychology.

Miriam Wagnon

Dance Instructor

I started out as dance assistant and am now one of our newest lead instructors. I have been dancing from a young age, taking ballet, tap, and jazz consecutively since the age of 3. Wanting to follow in my sister’s footsteps, I tried out for Central High School’s drill team, Tex-Ann’s. I was a 2 year member on the team, due to graduating a year early. I now continue to grow her passion for dance and teaching others. I'm also attending Howard College to pursue my Associates of Science in Business and then attend Cosmetology School. 

Maloree Mills

Dance Instructor

I never really wanted to be a Tex- Ann or too involved in dance. I loved dancing, but I thought that being a cheerleader was what I wanted. Although, when my sister Miriam made me try out for Tex-Anns with her, it completely stole my heart. As a junior in high school, it’s my second year of Tex-Anns and it’s teaching me all about patience, work ethic, and leadership. I love getting to share the magic of dance with others because once you become involved, it stays with you forever.

​I began dancing when I was 13. I was very shy at first, but then dance turned into something so enjoyable to me, I fell in love. I made the Lake View High School Chiefettes Dance Team my freshman year, was 2nd lieutenant my junior year, and was Co-Captain my senior year. It was a great experience learning from others and leading my team. I then went on to make the ASU Angelettes my freshman year. I am now a sophomore in college, this is my 2nd year dancing at the collegiate level. Additionally, I am pursuing a degree for Social Work at ASU.

Olivia Allen

Dance Instructor 

​I started dance in Houston, Texas when I was 3 years old and have been dancing ever since. I have always had a passion for dance. I love the sport and how it gives those the ability to express themselves in their own unique way. I did tumbling and cheerleading for 6 years. I am currently a three year member on the Tex-Ann drill team. I have earned the position as Senior Lieutenant and love helping and encouraging others to continue their passion for dance.  As a teacher, my goal is to help others appreciate dance as much as I do.

Kaylen Shetler

Dance Instructor 

I have been dancing since I was 3 years old, studying many styles including tap, ballet, hiphop, lyrical, acro, etc. Moving around a lot growing up made it difficult to find a home studio, but I’ve stuck to my love for dance through all the ups and downs. I went to Hendrickson High School in my hometown Pflugerville, TX and freshman year I made my school’s drill team, the Silver Dancers. I was on the team through my senior year, and served as a Social Officer my junior year. Being a Silver Dancer taught me so many life lessons and provided me with once in a lifetime opportunities, such as getting to perform with my team in the national St. Patrick’s Day parade in Cork, Ireland. Currently, I am a student at ASU, majoring in Intelligence and Analysis with a minor in Mathematics, and will potentially be adding a second major in Cybersecurity. I just finished my first year as an Angelette, and am loving being a collegiate dancer. I also am a member of ASU’s Honors College and am involved in Younglife.
