Kailee Thonvold is the dance teacher at Acorn School.

Hi! My name is Kailee Thonvold and I am thrilled to be apart of Acorn Dance Class. I live in East Mesa with my husband Lance, and two kiddos, Radlynn and Ranger. I absolutely love being a mama and feel so blessed with the life God has given me. 

I am an Arizona native and grew up dancing at Tempe Dance Academy in Tempe, Arizona where I studied ballet, jazz, contemporary, tap and acro. At Tempe Dance, I studied ballet under principal dancers from both Ballet Arizona and The Suzanne Farrell Ballet. I also traveled all around the country competing and performing, including a tour in Europe with the International Dance Alliance, where we performed in France, Italy, Germany, Austria and Switzerland.  After high school, I was a part of the ASU dance team and began teaching. This is when my love for training and inspiring young dancers began. 

I am so excited to collaborate with the vision and principles of the Acorn School while I teach the beauty and art of dance. It’s an honor to be able to share my love and passion for dance with everyone! See you soon.
