Adrienne Clark Whitworth
Hi, I'm Adrienne. I'm going to quickly introduce myself so that you can get to know me as you follow my journey as an Arts Bridge teacher.
I was born and raised in Salem, Utah. I am the youngest is of 8 children and I love being with my family. Soccer was one of the main activities that we shared as a family. Every child started playing very young and continued playing through high school. I did not want to break that chain, so I too played soccer.
When I was 8 years old my best friend Kandalyn was always going off to dance class and I got very interested in this. With a lot of pushing from me, my mom signed me up for dance class the following year so that I could be with Kandalyn. Jazz, Tap, and Ballet class was soon one of my favorite times of the week. I continued dancing Ballet, Jazz, Contemporary, Tap, and Modern at Lifehouse Performing Arts Academy for 9 years, until I graduated high school.
While dancing I somehow managed to keep soccer a big part of my life. I played competitively and also all throughout high school. I was a starting varsity player my freshman year and went on to become one of the team captains. It was a family tradition that I wasn't going to break.
After high school I attended my first year at Brigham Young University. I enjoyed taking various dance classes and also being a freshman. I realized that dance is something I did not want to live without, so I auditioned to become a Dance Education Major and I was accepted. I also always made time to play intramural soccer on the side.
In the Fall of 2013 I left to serve and LDS full time mission in Chile, Santiago North. This experience changed my life in more ways than I can count. But more than anything it brought me to know that Jesus Christ is my Savior!
After returning from my mission I immediately continued dancing and going to BYU. After auditioning multiple times I made the BYU Ballroom Dance Company. It was such a fun experience. I also auditioned and choreographed for BYU DancEnsemble a contemporary company. I currently am dancing with BYU DancEnsemble as well as a tap company called Foot Poetry.
After returning home I also found myself dating one of my friends from freshman year, Tanner Whitworth. We dated for 9 months, got engaged, then we were married on November 11, 2016. He is my best friend and my greatest inspiration. He plays soccer for the BYU soccer team and I thoroughly enjoy watching and cheering him on.
I am studying Dance Education and hope to become a high school dance teacher. My long-term goal is to become a choreographer for multiple companies, or maybe even my own company. I also want to be a mom and raise a family with my husband Tanner. Life has been good to me and I'm so grateful to my Heavenly Father for all of the opportunities that He has allowed me.
