Taylor Rosenthal grew up in Evanston, IL and began dancing at age three at Dance Center Evanston. She trained in ballet, modern, jazz, tap, and hip-hop. In high school, she joined her school’s dance company where she first began choreographing and teaching fellow students. 

 

Taylor went on to attend UW-Madison and graduated in 2021 with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering and a Minor in Dance. While in college, Taylor performed with and choreographed for Optima Dance, a student organization at UW-Madison. She was also selected to perform a contemporary solo in the UW-Madison Dance Department Kloepper Concert in 2020. 

 

Since graduating, Taylor has danced with Madison Contemporary Dance, Isthmus Dance Collective, and U.DL. Beyond dance, Taylor works full-time as a Mechanical Engineer, and enjoys playing ultimate frisbee in her free time.

 

Taylor is excited to teach dance at A Step Above for her first year and expand her connections within the dance community in Madison!
