melissa warning

Studio Owner / Company Director

Melissa Warning grew up in New Lenox, Illinois where she began training at Mrs. Minuth’s.  She continued dancing and eventually began participating in pom-dance through the New Lenox Mustangs. Melissa attended Illinois State University where she studied kinesiology and recreation as well as health education. After college, Melissa began teaching dance in the physical education setting and coaching high school dance team.  Melissa has coached the Minooka Varsity Dance Team to 8 sectional championships, 6 conference championships, top ten in the state for 9 years in a row as well as bringing home two 3rd place podium trophies. Melissa is thrilled to bring her love of dance, family atmosphere, and passion for developing dancers into strong human beings to Thrive Dance Project.
