Hello! My name is Mikaela Walker and I have been dancing since the age of 3 years old. I joined Dance Explosion when I was in 7th grade where I was a dancer and assistant until graduating high school. Then in 2012, I became a dance teacher while attending the University of Wisconsin-River Falls. My favorite styles of dance would have to be poms and hip hop! I am also a special education teacher at New Richmond High School and one of the coaches for the High School Dance Team. My husband and I have two boys, 2 Golden Retrievers , and 1 sweet cat. I love seeing our dancers and families within the community and connecting through all of life’s journeys alongside of dance.

Dancing is not just something we do, it is who we are. Dance Explosion creates a home where dancers can learn to express themselves and feel safe doing so. I want for everyone to walk through our doors and feel as loved as I have over the years. We are so excited to have you here!
