Miah Pullen

Owner and Lead Dance Instructor

I didn't realize I wanted to try out for Tex-Ann's until the beginning of my freshman year. I was a cheerleader at Lee Middle School before high school, but did not continue to the high school level. Since I didn't continue cheerleading, I decided to take a Tex-Ann prep class my freshman year at a different studio in town. Even though I had been dancing my whole life, I realized that drill team dancing is a different type of dancing and I struggled in the beginning to learn the different kinds of dance technique. In May 2012 I made Tex-Ann's for the upcoming season and I absolutely fell in love with everything about being a Tex-Ann. I was honored to be a Junior Lieutenant my junior year of Tex-Ann's and Co-Captain my senior year.
It was so amazing to lead my team for 2 years in a row. I have learned how to lead and teach others, including my own peers. I have a true passion for helping and teaching others. This is my fifth year teaching and I absolutely love it! I'm also a Government instructor at Howard College and the Angelo State University Angelettes Dance Team Coordinator . 

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

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 Assistant

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.

Ashley Welch 

Dance Instructor

I did gymnastics, tap & ballet when I was younger. In elementary I was introduced into the cheerleading world and was a part of Super Squad in fifth & sixth grade. I continued cheerleading all three years at Lee Jr. High. My interest peaked again for dance when I saw the Tex-Anns perform at a freshman orientation for Central High School. I was a part of Tex-Anns all three years at Central. I had the privilege of being on the officer line my junior year as 2nd Lt. and senior year as Co-Captain. I knew I wanted to continue dancing so I tried out for the ASU Angelettes and made it! I danced for ASU for one semester and not long after was on the Stampede Express Arena Football dance team for two years. After that I tried out for the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders. I did not make the team, although it was a great learning experience for me. Finally, I danced for one year for the Bandits Arena Football team. All these years I have learned my strengths in dance are being able to pick up routines quickly and flexibility.

I am originally from San Antonio, Texas. I began my dance training at the age of 6-years-old with ballet, jazz, tap, and folkloriqo. Over the years, I learned a variety of ballroom, Latin, swing, and country dances. I started competing in Latin, ballroom, and country dancing at the age of 18 and continue competing and improving to this day. With country dancing, I have placed in the top 5 in several competitions across Texas. Over the years I have not only progressed in footwork and technique, but I have gained dance skills such as aerials, lifts, and a variety of spins.
