With over 20 years of dance experience, Samantha Diehl began at age 3 and was competing by 5. She trained extensively in jazz, contemporary, hip hop, ballet, lyrical, and tap, first at Davenport Dance Project, then with District Dance Company, and later with Cora Kozaris (contemporary, jazz, lyrical, commercial/jazz funk).
By 14, Samantha was already teaching jazz, contemporary, and technique to young dancers. Her portfolio has since expanded to advanced and adult dancers, with a growing passion for heels. Highlights include competitive awards and titles, serving as a principal dancer on YTV, performing in Ballet Jörgen’s The Nutcracker, and appearing on Maury’s “Most Talented Kid Dancers” at age 9. Recently, she has embraced new challenges, including competing in heels at the Montreal Heels Festival.
As an instructor and choreographer, Samantha helps dancers discover themselves as movement artists, recognize their power, and fall in love with themselves through dance. She strives to create an environment that inspires growth, authenticity, and self‑confidence inside and outside the studio.
