Hi! I’m Whimsy.

I thrive in the space where movement meets storytelling, healing, and reclamation. My work fuses the raw, expressive, and rebellious with the playful, sensual, and deeply embodied. Through my performance and teaching, I invite others into a space of self-expression, liberation, and connection.

Movement has always been my language. From the Appalachian rhythms of my Kentucky roots to the hypnotic undulations I discovered as a child, I’ve followed the pulse of dance wherever it leads. My work spans burlesque, heels, twerk, belly dance, chair, roller skate performance, and theatrical storytelling—all informed by the rich history of dance as a tool of resistance, sensuality, and joy. I was raised in a family who had a DJ business, so I grew up with music all around me. My dad was a singer, song writer and musician who taught me the importance of presence with this art. I learned the joy of facilitating a musical experience for others to celebrate, grieve or experience joy together as a community.

Growing up in the Bible Belt I’ve had to recognize and unlearn internalized judgment and shame around certain dance styles and movements, even with my family’s love of music and art there were still ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ ways to move or express. My authentic expression is in my response to and stand against Purity Culture, colonization of movement and respectability politics.

As an instructor, I create spaces where people can explore their bodies without shame, tap into confidence, and move freely without the constraints of perfectionism or expectation. My classes and workshops blend technical skill with intuitive movement, drawing from my background in somatics, expressive arts, and mindfulness. Whether you're here to learn a new style, find catharsis through movement, or simply take up space unapologetically—I welcome you.

Wildly Whimsy is more than a brand; it’s a portal. A space where movement isn’t just technique, but a reclamation. A celebration. A homecoming.

I can’t wait to dance with you.
