KC Van de Merkt captivates an entire audience’s dreams with her provocative hoop presence that explodes when she performs. Her funky hooping incorporates 12 years of hip hop and classical ballet experience with a totally unique style. Having traveled internationally to perform with her hoop, she has graced audiences from the west coast ( Seattle to Los Angeles) to the Midwest, Canada and the down-under, hooping all the way. Her training includes Dance Theatre of Elgin, Hubbard Street Dance Chicago, Joffrey Ballet, Ball State University , and several International Dance showcases. While traveling through Australia, KC fell in love with an exotic dance medium: fire. She currently performs with Chicago’s fire arts collective, Spunn, using hoop, poi, and fans. KC’s dance is truly an experience to be remembered. Her hooping exhibits passion, focus, intensity, and the ideal amount of playfulness. Her movements are smooth, sly, and syncopated where need be. KC can draw people in and then send them soaring with heart-stopping excitement that they’ll never forget. She’ll flow straight through the bedroom of your mind and leave her imprint on the wall.
