Kristen showed up two hours early, was set up, stretched and ready to go as soon as her scheduled time came up. She was dressed for the part (make up and all) and performed flawlessly for an hour! I would recommend her in a heart beat and plan on having her back again this year. I even had another very fit performer there that was telling me how amazed and impressed she was Kristen could perform that long. Thank you Kristen!

Kristen is fantastic and we always love working with her at the Sideshow Fringe Festival! Whether she's dancing, hooping, or hanging from the ceiling - she does it with grace and originality! We can't wait to host her again and see what she does next!
One word: Wow! We used Kristen's unique talents in what we thought was an unconventional manner. She was performing in club-like environment and when I tell you that she just put the night over the top, I do not exaggerate. She used her skills and blended it with the lively scene and it was exactly what I pictured, a masterful performance. I was pleased with her professionalism and hiring her was a pleasure. What I will never forget was her willingness to work within our budget and also being excited to support our party. I encourage anyone looking to do something special to have people talking for a while about your event, hire Kristen--you won't be disappointed.
Kristen was contracted as a guest performer with my aerial & modern dance company FALL, for Museum & Menagerie, a fund-raising event for Safe Haven Family Shelter. She is a brilliant performer with beautiful stage presence & excellent skills. Her dependability & clear communication adds to her professionalism & makes her wonderful to work with. I would definitely be interested in having her perform with us again.
Kristen has performed several times on stage with Tennessee Women's Theater Project as part of our annual Women's Work Festival. Not only is she a talented, crowd-pleasing performer, she approaches the gig with an admirable professional attitude: on time, prepared and easy to work with.
We very much enjoyed working with Kristen. She was very helpful in communication her performance abilities and at adapting to the needs of our events.

About Kristen Leophard | Kinetic Kristen:
Forget tip-toeing through the tulips; Kristen prefers to spin, leap and tumble throughout her surroundings! She was fascinated by dance from a young age, training many years in multiple styles of dance and performance, including ballet and color guard.

Her training includes sessions with notable performers from Canopy Studios, Cirque Eloize, Ringling Brothers, Aerial Fabricators and SaFire Dance. Kristen is forging her own recognizable path in the burgeoning world of circus and movement arts, utilizing hoop, single-point and static trapeze, aerial silks, acrobatics and contemporary dance in her work.
Since that fateful moment, Kristen has dazzled audiences with grace, energy and a chameleon-esque ability to adapt to any theme, performance style, or weather condition. She has performed for clients and entertainment production companies around the country including the Opryland Hotel, Virginia Museum of Fine Art, City of Sugar Land, Vanderbilt University, Snow Flow Festival, Greyhound, ESPN.

Depending upon your event's needs, you may choose atmospheric performance or a choreographed stage show. Available choreographed stage acts have predetermined music. If the song of the act does not fit your event, we can discuss together a custom creation with the best song to convey your event's mood, theme and engage your audience.
Atmospheric performance does not usually have a pre-created set list, however, a custom song list can be created for your event if you inquire.
Available Acts:
'Danza Circo' - A contemporary circus act mixing classic hula hoop manipulations with sassy Latin flair. This multiple hoop act channels the hand-clapping drive of its flamenco soundtrack into a high energy acrobatic performance, building to an fantastic finale of wildly whirling hoops you do not want to miss. This self-contained act is available with a classy black skirted costume or a flirtatious green skirted costume, both with high wattage sparkle to shine under your stage lights.
'Talisman' - A mystical single hoop performance influenced by modern dance, acrobatics and the mysterious Whirling Dervishes, spiraling in shades of white & silver to the sounds of French electronic duo Air.
'Precipice' - (coming soon!) Single-point trapeze
