Company Dancer Kevin Wilson is dancing his second season with Kansas City Ballet. Find out more about Kevin below.
Q: HOW DID YOU BECOME A DANCER? AND WHEN DID YOU START DANCING?
A: I started when I was 8. I got offered a spot in an all boys class from an outreach program. I didn’t get serious with it until after my mother passed away and I ended up going to Harid Conservatory in Florida. That is where I really got my act together.
Q: what is something most people wouldn’t know about you?
A: I don’t care for the colors yellow or purple. I don’t trust cats. I’m polite to them, but I never trust them.
Q: Do you have a personal mantra that you swear by?
A: Before I dance I usually just repeat “You got this.”
Q: What do you enjoy most about Kansas City Ballet and why?
A: This company is made up of dedicated, honest, hard-working people. I have only been here a year but I can’t imagine myself ever wanting to leave. I love the rep, the coaching and the direction of the company.
