Evelyn Squires was born in Asker, Norway. At 12, Evelyn began her ballet training with Royal Academy of Dancing. A year later, Evelyn was invited by a talent scout from The Royal Norwegian Opera Ballet to audition for their school. She was accepted & trained there for the next 4 years. She was selected to be in professional company productions such as Coppelia, Faust, Christ's Childhood, The Nutcracker, and several others.

At age 16, Evelyn moved with her family to Orem, Utah, where she trained with Ballet West Conservatory under the Legendary "Mr. Christensen", Benee Arnold, Sharee Lane, Jean Philip and others. There she also performed in ballets such as Concerto Borocco, Serenade, The Nutcracker, La Bayadere and others.

During her 9 month stay in Seattle Washington, Evelyn took Ballet at the Cornish College of the Arts and was taught by Miss Haan. In 1998 Evelyn moved back to Norway and attended Baardar Performing Arts College. There she was trained in the disciplines of Jazz, Modern, Theatre, Ballet and Lyric dance with master teachers from all over the world. She also learned the discipline of Deep-Stretch, and went on to becoming a personal trainer and Fitness Instructor for Xcel Spa & Fitness in Bountiful Utah.

Back in the United States, Evelyn attended BYU, and danced & toured with their Ballet Company. Currently Evelyn resides in Sarasota Florida with her husband Aaron, 4 year old daughter Sophie Revelle, and newborn son Joseph Halvor.
