Alaska -- Kyli Kleven

Alaska – Kyli Kleven
Kyli was born in rural Alaska. She left home when she was 15 to go to the Virginia School of the Arts. Shortly after this she started going to the American Dance Festival, and has gone more times than she would like to admit. She was a DanceWEB scholar at ImPulsTanz in 2008 and is now a proud, if relatively inactive member of The Embassy of Ophelia is Not Dead. She will graduate from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on May 17th with a BFA in Dance and a Minor in Gender Studies. She'll be tinkering with the right cortex, then the left cortex, then with the limits of empathy.
