Amanda Panting was born and raised in Omaha, Nebraska. At the age of 5, she was asked probably one of the most important questions of her life by her mother, “dance classes or gymnastics?” Dance was the obvious answer, and the rest is history.
Amanda grew up in the dance studio taking every class possible. She performed with award winning teams at competitions throughout the Midwest, and became an “NDA All-American” dancer in high school. She was a founding member of DanceFLEX, a semi-professional dance company in Omaha, and performed as a Prime Dancer for the Omaha Beef Indoor Football League. She began assistant teaching in high school at her home studio and continued to teach in Omaha for 6 years before relocating to Temecula, California.
Amanda has since found a new home base and still teaches dance and tumbling to kids as well as teaching Barre fitness classes and now GROOV3. Amanda is excited to continue to share her love of all things dance and to keep spreading the GROOV3ment to Murrieta.
