Lizzie Archer

Archer grew up in the heart of the midwest on the plains of South Dakota. In Sioux Falls, her dance journey began. Jackie Pederson Kriens and Jessica Adam Rooney shaped and molded her technical skills, particularly in the Cecchetti Ballet Method. By age 18 she had completed and passed Cecchetti levels I-VII in addition to completing the system's level one certification for teacher training. After highschool she spent time in Costa Rica exploring belly dance under the instruction of Jerusa Alvarado. Since then, she has loved being immersed in the collegiate dance world pursuing her BA in Choreography and Performance at the University of Montana. Continuing her technical dance training and attending regional dance conference ACDA yearly, she looks forward to establishing herself as a mover/choreographer/collaborator/performer in Missoula, MT.
