| Mimi in Body Revolution |
Full Name: Kamilah “Mimi” Barrett
 |
| Kamila created Heel Hop |
Background/Current: Kamilah was a contestant on season 1 of So You Think You Can Dance (SYTYCD) in the U.S. She was eliminated in week 6, finishing in the top 6 of that season. She has that experience in common with Hayley, who was a British series 1 SYTYCD contestant.
Her biography describes her as follows: “A spiritually connected, certified fitness instructor, she has traveled the world as a Professional Choreographer, Dancer, Singer, and Actress. Discovered by the music legend Prince, Kamilah’s style and brand has always remained consistent: Classy, Sexy, Empowering.” You can see the some of the diverse projects she has done in the links below.
She is the creator of Heel Hop, a workout program designed to combine hip hop dance moves and high heels, particularly suited to performers who wear them often.
My Comments: Mimi is fun to watch in Body Revolution. I had no idea she was such an accomplished performer. When she says in one of the workouts, “I want to go out dancing!” it makes a lot of sense!
