A lifelong dancer, Victoria Kickham studied and performed at the University of New Hampshire, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in English. She has taught all ages at studios in and around Boston, including the Jeannette Neill Dance Studio; The Studio: A Dance Center for Adults; and Integrarte Dance Art Movement Center. She has studied with master jazz teachers Jeannette Neill and Lynn Simonson, and incorporates principles of the Simonson Technique—an organic approach to movement that prepares the body to dance in a way that is anatomically intelligent and somatically aware—into her adult and teen classes.

Victoria also works as a writer and editor, and earned her master’s degree in English from Northeastern University.
