Tiffany Best

Tiffany Best is an American dancer, choreographer and dance instructor. She grew up training in Kansas City. After graduating high school she toured Europe with Signature Dance Company as a part of the Tanzommer Festival. 

Tiffany became a founding member of Störling Dance Theater and a founding teacher for The Culture House under the direction of Jeremiah and Mona Störling-Enna. She worked with and performed works by Stephen Wynne, Steve Rooks, Amy Meyers Obregon and Drew Davidson. Because of Tiffany’s diverse dance training, she was asked to assist Störling-Enna in choreographing her world premiere, neo-classical ballet, Prodigal Daughter. 

She then trained and taught at Hubbard Street and was on scholarship at Gus Giordano while dancing with VADCO/Valerie Alpert, Ford Saliba Dance Company, Chicago Dance Crash and Keith Givens Dance Lab. 

Tiffany spent over a year as Artist in Residence at Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas, where one of the many highlights was choreographing, directing and producing her first full-length dance concert titled Tango Loco.  

Tiffany danced in Denver, Colorado, for Terrell Davis-Davis Contemporary Dance Company, Chris Harris-Louder Than Words Dancetheater and Jacob Mora-Moraporvida Contemporary Dance. 

Since returning home to Kansas City, Tiffany continues to dance with Störling Dance Theater (9 seasons now). Most recently she has had the privilege of working with and performing works by Tobin James, Heather Gray, Suzanne Ryan Strati, Courtney Bourman, Lauri Stallings, Catherine Meredith and Tristian Griffin. 

Tiffany’s illustrious teaching career has earned her incredible opportunities to work with dancers of all ages and abilities, even through the Parkinsons’ Foundation. Whatever the genre, Tiffany pours her whole self into opening her students' awareness to their individual gifts and their responsibility to be generous with those gifts. 

Tiffany is a proud mother of five and attributes her ability to combine motherhood and a professional dance career to her supportive husband and the grace of God.
