Kiki Ely | Talent Agent | Creative Producer| GenX UGC Creator

4 YEARS OF KIKI KASTINGS ENTERTAINMENT 🎉✨ @kikikastings This all started with a passion for educating. As a professional dancer, I saw firsthand how much was missing. So many unanswered questions. So many things never taught or explained. Most of what we learn in this industry comes from trial and error, on the job, the hard way. I knew it didn’t have to be like that. I wanted to fill that gap. With 26+ yrs of Working in the industry it is my life’s purpose. To give dancers real knowledge, real tools, and real industry insight that could shorten the learning curve, get them working sooner, and position them in the rooms I already knew they belonged in. That vision became Kiki Kastings Entertainment. Four years later, it has grown into a full ecosystem for dancers, artists, and creatives serious about building careers. From day one to now, we’ve: ✨ Coached and developed 300+ dancers ✨ Helped talent book tours, music videos, commercials, film, and television ✨ Worked alongside platinum artists and major productions ✨ Built KK Talent Brand Agency @kktalentbrandagency ✨ Launched KK University ✨ Created KK Studioz @kikikastings.studioz ✨ Developed KK Platinum Career Coaching & Platinum Vault ✨ Expanded The ROOM multiple volumes and Residency ✨ Built a pipeline of #KKSuperstarz actively working This is not just about classes. This is about career development, access, and elevation. Every rehearsal. Every audition. Every lesson. Every risk. It all built THIS. Year 5 is about expansion, ownership, and global impact. Continuing to create spaces where talent is prepared, seen, and booked. Thank you to everyone who has trusted this vision 🤍 Thank you to all of my past students that built Kiki Kastings and anyone that as supported my business, been in any room or at the studio. I’m forever grateful for your love and support. Would not be where we are without you. So much more to come.. the Vision is GLOBAL! 🌎 🎬✨ The future is NOW. 🌐 #KikiKastings #KKSuperstarz #KKTalentBrandAgency #BookedAndWorking TheFutureIsNow

Her choreography and associate choreography credits extend across film and television, including projects such as Step Sisters, What Men Want, Step Up: High Water, The Resident, Doom Patrol, and Atlanta, working alongside some of the most brilliant creative minds in the industry.

Picture this… ✨🎬👩🏽‍🎓 26 years after graduating college with my Bachelor of Science degree in Chemistry from @southernu_br and dancing with @theforeverdolls pledging @dstinc1913 … I finally got to attend the college I grew up watching… “Hillman College” 🥹🫂❤️ Over the past 26 years I’ve worked on so many college campuses through Film & TV, especially here in Atlanta, but this moment felt truly full circle. Meeting Veronica “Ronnie” Hodge on the set of Drumline in 2001 and reconnecting years later on Drumline: A New Beat with Director @billewoodruff changed my life forever. Ronnie has continuously spoken my name in rooms that opened doors beyond Drumline and referred me for incredible opportunities throughout my career ❤️ #Relationships Projects Ronnie brought me onto throughout the years: @thequadbet Queen Bees @dcdoompatrol @bmfstarz @atlantafx @fabfourmovie Fight Night @themonprime As well as opportunities that led to projects like @boomerangonbet @cwstargirl @greenleafown @sweetmagnolias_netflix and 2 seasons of @stepupseries ✨ From Drumline to A Different World… I’m forever grateful to still be in this business and surrounded by Guardian Angels in entertainment who genuinely want to see me win 🫂🎥 one of the main reasons I started @kikikastings & @kktalentbrandagency 🚀✨ Special s/o to @dancin_desi @xavier.terell & @raiannacbrown for contributing choreography to this incredible series and congratulations to all the dancers booked!

Happy Mother’s Day to me.. 💐💜 I would be lying if I said motherhood was easy. It’s not.. but I would not trade it for anything in the world. There’s something superhuman about birthing life into this world! But we do it.. I love you so much @kennedydream 🥹👧🏽💜 You are the reason I go so hard. I want more for you than ever. You are growing up to be such an incredible, beautiful young lady heading into your teenage years next month, and I’m so proud to call you my daughter. There is a light inside of you that is so special and sweet. Your sense of humor, your powerful prayers, your talents, your smarts, and your spiritual gifts are all blessings from God. I love you so much Baby. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms, and extra love to the single moms making it happen every day. Thank you to my village for your continuous love and support in helping me raise Kennedy. 💐💜 thank you for those that also support me & @kennedydream I’m forever grateful to you. Happy Mothers Day 🫂

Quick reminder… Stay inspired. Stay encouraged. Stay passionate. This journey will test you, but don’t lose the love for it. Go support the art in real life. Go see the shows. Go feel the energy. Go study the work up close. Not just on your phone. That is the MASTERCLASS. Show love to the creatives. The dancers. The choreographers. The producers. The Creative Directors The full production teams that make the magic happen. That’s how you grow. That’s how you stay connected to why you started. Keep pouring back into the culture that feeds you.

#GetReelwithKiki 2 words. Organized chaos. That’s the dance industry. 90% of your career is built in rehearsal. Not the stage. Not the lights. The rehearsal. That’s where you get corrected, pushed, overlooked, called out, and sharpened. And let me be clear. If you’re not treating rehearsal like it is the job… you’re already behind. That’s where habits are built, stamina is tested, and professionalism is seen before anyone ever hands you a check. theROOM is a sacred space. Not a class. Not a vibe. A place where dancers come to be challenged, seen, and prepared for what this industry actually requires. This is where you learn how to move with intention, perform with purpose, and show up like you already belong in the room. If you know, you know. Comment “ROOM” to get in.
