Background
Angelina was born and raised in Lancaster County and began Irish dancing when she was 4 years old. Her dancing journey began with the Coyle School where she reached Preliminary Championships and enjoyed weekly lessons. Heartbroken, Angelina had to stop dancing due to a lack of transportation. In her late teens her older sister, Crystal, moved back to PA and opened Hooley. This made it possible for Angelina to start training again with her sister as her teacher. By 2011 Angelina had moved up into the top competitive level of Open Championships and continued on to compete at North American Championships, World Championships, and All Irelands before obtaining her TCRG certification. Angelina is married to Justin who is the owner and instructor at Ephrata Martial Arts. They have two daughters, Ember and Becca, who attend both Irish dance and martial arts classes.
