Miss Dorian started her ballet training at age 3 with Ballet Arlington under Svetlana Stanova and Nicolai Semikov. She continued her studies at Texas Ballet Theater School, Ballet Center of Fort Worth, and most recently at Etgen-Atkinson Ballet School where she performed for three years as a company member with Dallas Metropolitan Ballet.

Miss Dorian has attended summer intensives at Tulsa Ballet’s Pointe to the Future, American Ballet Theater, Pacific Northwest Ballet, and San Francisco Ballet School, where she received scholarships for some of her training.

Twice, she placed in the top 10 at Youth America Grand Prix in both classical ballet and contemporary, qualifying for the New York finals.

She continues her dance training today with Michelle Gifford, Kim Abel, Emily Hunter, and of course, Megan Young. She loves teaching both the art and the joy of ballet to her young students.
