Kelsey Wickman

DWC Ambassador

Kelsey Wickman began dancing at the age of four starting with ballet and tap, then expanding to include jazz, contemporary, lyrical and modern. She refined her ballet training while attending State Street Ballet's summer intensive. Kelsey then continued her dancing while enrolled at Gonzaga University. During college, she participated in academic dance classes, the student-led dance club Boundless, oversaw the dance program's master class program, danced and choreographed for Student Choreography Concerts, performed with the Gonzaga University Dance Team, attended ACDFA and earned a minor in Dance.

Post-college, Kelsey relocated to Salt Lake City where she was able to continue her training at Millennium Dance Complex SLC from a multitude of talented teachers in a variety of styles. In 2015, Kelsey relocated back to Seattle and joined modern company, Version Excursion Dance, who she danced with for 2.5 years. Kelsey is now in her second season with Syncopation Dance Project, a group of passionate adult-age dancers who come together to share their talents. She also participates in the annual artÉmotion adult ballet intensive under the direction of Allison DeBona where each summer she is inspired by dancers of all levels who continue to keep dance a part of their lives even with life, family, work and other obligations. Kelsey's ultimate goal is to still be dancing way into old age.

Outside of dance, Kelsey is the Media Relations Manager at Rad Power Bikes.
