JACKSONVILLE J’ETTES DANCE TEAM (junior)
1ST TIME ON THE 8CA ALL-STATE DANCE TEAM
I’ve been dancing for 13 years.
My favorite dance team memory was becoming 2X IHSA 1A state champions!
One thing you should know about me is that when I put my mind to something, like getting a new skill or improving something I already have, I push myself until I achieve that. My teammates are always incredibly supportive to everyone and are always willing to give constructive feedback.
I want to thank my coach, Tiffany Hickox, for continuing to push all of us to be our absolute best and for seeing the best in us.
I love performing jazz and contemporary routines. My favorite thing to do when performing is tell a story.
When I’m not dancing, I like to spend time with my sister, do self-care, clean my room, drive around, and definitely listen to podcasts!
Kylie is a junior on my team this year and a squad leader. Being a leader for our team comes very naturally for her. Kylie does this with assertiveness, yet a sense of humor. This approach allows her to gain respect from her teammates quite easily. Not only is Kylie a great leader, but she has a skill set that is above and beyond exceptional. She can turn like none other. She has jumps and leaps and so much emotion all wrapped up in one. Kylie has intentions of dancing in college. She attends combines and clinics any chance she can get. With all of her strong attributes, I believe she will find herself on a nationally ranked college team. Whatever Kylie sets her mind on, she quite often achieves. I cannot wait to see where this dance journey takes her next and excited to have one more year with her on my team.
