NICOLE NELSON

HIP HOP

Nicole Nelson grew up on a strawberry farm in rural Southern Wisconsin. She loved all things creative and dramatic, and was lucky to be able to dabble in dance through poms team and at-home, self-choreographed performance extravaganzas, although formal training was not accessible to her. Her dance journey truly began with musical theater, where she discovered a love of the arts, and dance in particular. It was at the age of 19, after taking a 1-credit hip hop dance class in college at UW-Madison, Nicole fell in love with hip hop dance and decided to pursue dance training with vigor.
