Amy Vaporis was born and raised in Huntsville, AL, and began her dance training with North Alabama Dance Center at the age of 8. Taught in the styles of ballet, jazz, contemporary, lyrical, tap, and hip hop, she was a competition dancer recognized by names such as Mark Meismer, Duncan Cooper, Rustin Matthew, and Stacey Tookey, among others. In her high school years, Amy was a title holder for several competitions and had the opportunity to travel and assist award-winning choreographers at multiple conventions, including but not limited to NUVO, NRG, and Platinum Dance Experience.
In college, Amy was a member of the Auburn University Tiger Paws from 2020-2023. She performed during football, basketball, volleyball, and soccer games, as well as gymnastics meets. She choreographed multiple routines for the team, traveled to many NCAA tournaments, and participated in community outreach. She would guest teach and choreograph at her home studio when back in Huntsville, and found a passion for helping the next generation of dancers grow to love the art form as much as she does! Amy joined the Edge Dance staff in 2025.
