Alicia’s dance passion started at a young age while training at a local studio in her hometown of Marshall, Missouri. She competitively danced for the studio, winning many National titles and awards. She was apart of the Marshall High School Dance Force team for 3 years and was chosen as an All-American Cheerleader and Dancer. She danced at the collegiate level as a Glitter Girl for Avila University. She continued her career as a dancer in the AFL for the Kansas City Command, a Kansas City Chiefs Cheerleader and then moved to Colorado to pursue a dream of dancing in the NBA. She was a Denver Nuggets Dancer for 4 years where she got to travel internationally for performances in Mexico, London and China. Alicia has been living in Colorado for 11 years and has a passion for hiking in the mountains. She is heading into her 2nd season as Head Coach of the Toms.
