Get 2 Know Mia Spitzer!

I do Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu! I currently train in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, a grappling-based martial art. The ability to protect myself in quick situations is something I find very important in everyday life. I'm inspired by the protective mechanisms BJJ provides and how that can be intertwined with dance. I am currently a white belt but aspiring to become more familiar with this technique! If you're interested in any self-defense seminars be sure to contact me!  ​

I am a member of the University of Iowa Dance Team!
Along with working towards a BFA in Dance and BA in Exercise Science, I have been blessed with the opportunity to represent this amazing university. You can find me on the football field, basketball court, wrestling mat, volleyball court, and baseball dugouts all year long! The “IDT” travels to UDA college nationals at Disney World’s ESPN center every year where we compete to win a national championship. Through my experiences with the team, I feel like I have learned how to manage my time, perform in front of thousands, and work with a large group of determined individuals. ​
