Sassy Summer Instructors
Kelsea Hull, Burlesque Unveiled
Kelsea Hull (aka Waltzing Matilda) brings ballet roots and burlesque flair to every stage she struts. After leaping straight from pliés to pasties, she now blends the grace of classical dance with the cheeky charm of vintage vaudeville. Based in Bryan, TX, Kelsea is the producer and star of Wretched and Divine Cabaret, where she hosts as the "hostess with the most ass." She's also the co-creator of The Best Little Burlesque Camp in Texas. Proudly Aussie-made, she's the only thing from Australia not trying to kill you—yet.
Lisa Perkins, Heels & Heartbeats: A Stilettos Series
Lisa Perkins rediscovered dance as an adult—not for perfection, but for joy, peace, and connection. Though she started dancing young, she often felt her spirit outpaced her body. Returning to the studio later in life, she found her true rhythm in movement and community. As a teacher, Lisa creates space for every student to explore, celebrate, and step into their own power. Her classes are grounded in curiosity, self-love, and the belief that dance is a journey—not a destination.
Ilana Mosley, Heels & Heartbeats: A Stilettos Series
Ilana Mosley brings energy, elegance, and a whole lot of sass to the studio. A lifelong dancer with a love for contemporary, modern, lyrical, and jazz, Ilana now shares her passion through Sassy Stilettos and Chair classes. Her teaching style blends strong technique with playful confidence, helping dancers of all levels feel empowered, expressive, and fierce. Whether you're strutting in heels or flowing through choreography, Ilana is here to hype you up every step of the way.
