Heart and Soul of the J Creek Cloggers

As Kim got older, she headed to the popular Carter Family Fold in Hiltons, VA to watch some of the best dancers on the floor showcasing their moves. Kim mimicked their steps, adding several of her own, as well.
As the years went by, Kim moved to Waynesville, NC, got married, and had two boys, each sharing their mom’s passion for the old-time dancing style. Kim’s desire, above all else, was to preserve the heritage of flatfoot and buck dancing, thus becoming the founder of the J Creek Cloggers. Kim, to this day, enjoys ‘freestyle’ clogging.
Under Kim’s guidance since the team’s founding to present, the J Creek Cloggers boast 25 members currently, ranging in age from teenage years into their 80s, performing across the United States showcasing the vibrant diversity of these dance forms.
