Hi,

I’m Kari

Welcome to Dancing Poppies! I started ballet in my 30s and fell in love with the discipline, beauty, and chaos of it all.

This blog is where I share the ups, downs, sore feet, sparkly skirts, and honest stories of adult ballet life. Whether you’re dancing, dreaming about it, or just here for the vibes—you belong.

Let’s plié, laugh, stumble, and bloom together. Let’s dance Poppies! 🩰✨
