Meredith Reardon, a native of Richmond, has been dancing since the age of 2 under the instruction of local teachers extending from Ann Catherine Cross to The Richmond Ballet. During her teen years, she had the pleasure of circulating competition circuits with The Showbiz Kids. During this time she had the pleasure of training with Mia Michaels, Desmond Richardson, Andy Blankenbeuhler, Suzi Taylor, and Leslie Browne. In the Summer of 2005, Meredith attended the New York City Dance Alliance Dance Intensive, and performed original works at La Guardia High School of Music, Art & Performing Arts.
Meredith graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University with a B.F.A. in Dance and Choreography in 2009. Through her career at VCU, she had the pleasure of performing and studying with Robert Battle, Urban Bush Women, Scott Putman, Gerri Houlihan, Francis Wessells, Arnott Mader, Lori Belilove, Starr Foster Dance Company, and Heidi Weiss.
Over the years, Meredith’s path has led her to teaching and giving her loyal students a haven to study, and embrace their gifts. In 2016, she founded The Dance Lab in Ashland, Va. to engage and continue training with local dancers. During this time, Meredith gained many skills such as Art Direction, Lighting, Stage Management, Marketing, Public Relations, Media Marketing, and Office Management.
Meredith has most currently become certified in Progressing Contemporary Technique, and teaching at Arts In Motion Dance Academy and Regency Dance Academy. She specializes in Contemporary, Modern, Ballet, Jazz, and Tap, as well as integrating her love for improvisation, yoga, strength training, and dance medicine into her classes.
