CIARA CHRISTINE STAMPER

When I was three years old my mom took me to my very first dance class, I have been thriving off of my passion ever since. My dance training began with the Academy of Colorado Ballet. I was heavily trained in Ballet, Contemporary, Hip-Hop, Jazz, Tap and Acrobatics. I competed throughout my childhood years at various competitions and conventions. As I grew older my passion grew stronger. I joined my high school dance team at Rock Canyon High School. I began choreographing for my dance team at age 15. I went on to dance for four years in college; I spent my first year at Fort Lewis College and then Texas Tech University. I was a part of the Texas Tech Pom Squad for 3 years, winning our first national championship my senior year. As I completed my collegiate career my passion evolved. I fell in love with a new style of dance called Shuffling. For the last 6 years I have been focusing on combining my technical dance training with shuffling. Mixing these completely different styles of dance, I have never felt more glad to be me. I've turned my passion into my career, while helping others learn different styles of dance. I've had opportunities to travel and perform across the world, danced in music videos for some of my favorite artists, and connected with amazing souls. My current goal is to share my love and passion for dance with all of you!
