Mia Michaels, coveted choreographer and contemporary mastermind, has officially dropped out of So You Think You Can Dance.
Michaels has quite the resume: she choreographed Cirque du Soleil’s Delirium, and Celine Dion’s Las Vegas show A New Day… (which I have seen and can honestly say was brilliant!!). She has also worked with Madonna, Ricky Martin, Gloria Estafan, and Prince. She’s even got a few Emmy nods under her belt…
Over the course of her five seasons on the show, Michaels’ artistic and unique pieces have been some of the most memorable routines on the stage (to me at least). So, in honor of her fabulous work, I thought I would present my own essential Mia Michaels pieces from the show. Enjoy!

Oh no! She was one of my favourite choreographers! Such a shame. She did an amazing choreography just recently on SYTYCD Canada too.
