Mackenna Thompson

Mackenna has been dancing since she was 3 years old, and started her dancing journey right here at KDC. As a young dancer at KDC, she trained in ballet, jazz, Irish, and hip hop. She is so excited to be back where she found her love of dance to share this joy with other young dancers, especially in her favorite dance style, hip hop! Mackenna got her degree at Western Washington University in Kinesiology, where she also taught dance fitness at WWU’s recreation center and worked as a youth coach. Ever since graduating, she has been teaching PE, Drama, and Dance at Chrysalis Elementary School in Woodinville. Her long term goal is to eventually go back to school for Occupational Therapy. Mackenna loves KDC’s mission to bring dance to all ages, and hopes to create a fun movement experience in all her hip hop classes.
