Gavin Morales (born on October 3, 2004 to Scott Morales and JoAnne Morales), is a famous dancer. Gavin has appeared on Dance Moms as a guest dancer on Candy Apples Dance Center's elite competition team, along with his older sister, McKenzie. Gavin and McKenzie previously danced at Dolce Dance Studio, but following a rather rude email sent to JoAnne in mid-2014, they were kicked out of the studio and forced to find a new one.
