MEET THE ICE ANGELS LEADERSHIP

Coach Karena: 

Hi Royals Nation! My name is Karena and I have been involved with the Reading Royals Ice Angels organization since the first season in 2018. I joined as one of the dancers, which led into being the assistant coach, team supporter and have been the coach since the 2022-2023 season. My passion and experience for dance, I could talk about for days, however I will try to be brief! Before the Ice Angels I had performed since I was 4 years old, including all types of different styles, as well as cheerleading. My favorite overall style was lyrical/contemporary and Pom routines. I was a part of Turning Pointe Dance Studio in my younger years, and then I ended at Academy of Movement. I had the pleasure of being involved with the Cheer FX all-star cheer team and the Reading Fightin Phils junior dance team. In addition to performing over the years, I assisted coaching junior cheer teams, and dance classes ages 4-10. Outside of dance, I have a career in banking and enjoy traveling. Usually my travels include Disney World, but I hope to experience many new places in the coming years. I am a dog mom and cat mom to my dog Luna and Missy and cat Figaro (yes, as in Figaro from Pinocchio)

I am truly thankful for the Reading Royals organization to have started the Ice Angels team. This brings so much joy to myself and many others that are still looking for a way to be involved with dance, cheerleading and the community!

Social Media Director Marcia:

Hey Royals fans! My name is Marcia and I am so happy to be returning this season as the Social Media Director for the Reading Royals Ice Angels! This is my fourth season with the Ice Angels! I have taken a step back from my role as an Ice Angel as I recently gave birth to a beautiful baby girl! In addition to my daughter, I have a wonderful husband, the cutest 3-year-old son, a dog and three cats! Outside of the Angel’s, I am a School Based Outpatient Therapist! Prior to the Ice Angels, I lived overseas in Okinawa, Japan where my husband was stationed with the Marine Corps. Since the age of 4 I have been dancing and performing a variety of styles which include tap, jazz, ballet, and hip-hop. I was a dance minor in college and even danced in Disney World! I am so happy I can continue to share my love of dance through the Ice Angels. It is an honor to still be involved with this organization despite being pregnant last season. I look forward to meeting so many new fans this year and continuing my relationship with those I have met in previous years. Go Royals!

Captain Andria:

Hey Royals Nation, I am Ice Angel Andria! This is my seventh season as a Reading Royals Ice Angel and sixth year returning as captain. I am born and raised in Reading, PA and have been a competitive dancer and cheerleader for 27 years! I am trained in various styles of dance; however I specialize in hip hop and jazz, which are my favorite styles. I previously danced on the Reading Junior Fightin’ Phils Dance Team and the Junior Reading Express Steam Team before becoming a member of the Reading Royals Ice Angels in its premiere season. I graduated from Temple University in 2017, earning my bachelor’s degree in Public Health. I also graduated from Reading Area Community College in 2020 earning my Nursing degree. I am extremely passionate about my career as a labor and delivery nurse and take pride in providing compassionate care for my patients and their families. While currently working as a registered nurse, I teach hip hop and jazz classes at the Academy of Movement.

Some of my hobbies outside of work and dance include training in the gym, cooking with my family, sneaker shopping, spending time with my loved ones, and traveling.

I am beyond excited to be returning to the Ice Angels and to create more memories with all the dedicated Royals fans. Our team has become a family over the years and I am so thankful to have built bonds and friendships that will last a lifetime. Performing has always been a huge part of my life and thanks to this organization and community, I can continue doing so in my hometown of Reading!

Go Royals!

Captain Katelyn:

Hi Royals fans! My name is Katelyn and I have been with the Reading Royals since 2019. I have been co-captain for the past 4 seasons. I am born and raised here in PA and I have been dancing since I was 5 years old. I stopped for a while as I got older to focus on my future and it felt wonderful to get back to doing what I love. I have danced for my college team at Gwynedd Mercy University and would take classes at Powerhouse Dance in New Jersey. I love all different styles of dance but am passionate about jazz and hip hop! Outside of dance, I have a career as a collection specialist and I live with my husband and my adorable, lovable puppies Bentley and Mercedes. I love to paint, sing, cook, go on walks with the pups, spend time with my family, and spend time down the beach in Ocean City Maryland. I am so thankful for the Royal’s organization for not only bringing me wonderful friends who have turned into family, but also all of the fans who I have grown close to!
