Holly has been involved in the dance world since the age of
two. She began her lessons with Judy Brown and remained at her studio until her sister and mom began Masters in 1982.
Holly's mom remembers that she was always making up dances and she just loved being on the poms team in school. While
studying dance at Masters she also took classical ballet from The William Reilly Academy of Ballet, in Milwaukee. She
continued taking dance classes throughout her college years at U.W. Parkside, majoring in Literature and Art History.
Holly began her apprenticeship as Owner and Creative Director in 1998. She studied under her mom and sister until she
purchased Masters of Movement in 2004. Over the years Holly has attended many dance workshops, master classes, costume
events and dance intensives in NYC, Chicago, Milwaukee and Steven's Point, just to name a few. Just recently,
Holly and some of her students attended a dance workshop With Master dancer, Cedric Gardner, (From Fox's Hit TV show "So
You Think You Can Dance")at Studio 21 Pom & Dance School In Oak-Creek, WI. Attending workshops and Master Classes

her studies in acting following the Stella Adler theory. Holly is a certified Kindermusik teacher and certified Dance
Educator. Holly has earned recognition in the competitive dance world for her choreography. Also, on New
