Kaylee (she/her) is a dancer on wheels based in Los Angeles. She grew up performing Musical Theatre in the Bay Area and moved to Los Angeles at 17 years old. She studied at The American Music and Dramatic Academy. Kaylee's Disney career began in 2015 as a dancer in parades from 2015-2018. She was diagnosed with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (a multi- systemic connective tissue disorder) in 2018 following her departure from Disney. Just after receiving her diagnosis, she danced on her feet one last time in Spielberg’s movie adaptation of “West Side Story.” She truly believed she’d never return to dance again, but the passion she had for movement never left. While the world locked down due to a global pandemic, Kaylee was learning how to dance from Seated. She figured out ways to expand every movement from online classes while seated. She danced sitting on the floor until 2022 when she received her first wheelchair- a device that would ultimately change her entire life. In July, she went to her first dance class in LA in her wheelchair. From that day on, she knew she was exactly where she was supposed to be. Kaylee now dances professionally from her wheelchair while working to create space for other disabled artists in the media. Her big break came from Jax’s “Victoria’s Secret” flashmob in August of 2022. She recently opened “Rogers the Musical” with Disney Live Entertainment as the first visibly disabled dancer to ever perform on a Disney stage. She’s worked with choreographers including Galen Hooks, Guy Groove, Sam Allen, Sarah Kobayashi, and more. Although she’s danced all her life, she truly feels like she’s dancing for the first time right now. Kaylee hopes that others will feel empowered to expand their own passions in life just as she has expanded dance to work for her. She’s so excited to be joining the Rollettes as a lil sis and finally not be the only one in the room on wheels.
