Kristi Fair

Kristi Marie Wooding has been training in dance since the age of three, studying throughout Orange County and Los Angeles County, California, including at West Coast School of the Arts under the direction of Paula Kessinger.

At just 17 years old, Kristi began teaching and choreographing while opening her first studio, Kristi's Forever Dancin', in Riverside, California. She successfully owned and operated the studio for 20 years, developing dancers of all ages and building a respected competitive dance program.

During her career, Kristi spent one year as a member of the Orange Coast College Dance Team, earning a National Collegiate Championship title in 2004. She also served for ten years on the Kids Artistic Revue (KAR) Convention faculty as a lyrical and jazz instructor, while judging for numerous regional and national dance competitions and choreographing opening production numbers for KAR National Finals.

Kristi's choreography has been showcased at her own studio, numerous dance studios across the country, and school dance teams throughout the United States. Her work has earned countless overall awards, choreography honors, and national championship titles.

After becoming a mother, Kristi sold her studio to devote more time to judging, teaching, and guest choreography. Today, she teaches and choreographs at Murrieta Dance Project in Murrieta, California, serves as a Lead Judge for Kids Artistic Revue, and continues to create award-winning choreography for dance studios and teams nationwide. With more than three decades of dance training and over two decades of teaching and choreographic experience, Kristi remains passionate about inspiring dancers through technical excellence, artistry, and performance.
