Bio

Hi everyone! I’m Dylan Candela, and I’ve been dancing and competing for around 11 years! I grew up and trained in Astoria, Oregon, where I danced many different styles, including ballet, jazz, hip hop, acrobatics, musical theatre, modern, contemporary, and lyrical.

My favorite styles to dance are definitely contemporary and hip hop because I love how they allow you to find your own groove and express yourself in a way that’s unique to you! I also love acrobatics and am always working to improve and learn new tricks.

Outside of dance, I love being outdoors and spending time with my friends! Some of my favorite things to do are running, surfing, hiking, and having beach days.

I’m so excited to join the Identity family and to share my love of movement with all of the dancers! I can’t wait to meet everyone and have an amazing year!
