About Kylie Sais
Kylie Sais started dancing when she was 15 years old. Her papa is the person who started her journey on jigging. She wasn’t sure at first if it was something for her but after seeing her little sister go to her first jigging lesson and watching her love it, it changed her mind. Kylie now dances with the Norman Chief Memorial Dancers travelling all over Manitoba and Canada. She has done many workshops with school and at different events teaching traditional dances and the Red River Jig.
