Lilly Hetz
St. Louis Based Movement Artist and Creative
I have enjoyed elevating my passion for dance to new heights. Under the stage name Lil-E-Lectric, I perform aerial arts, dance, and stilt walking at various corporate and public events throughout the St. Louis area and beyond. I take great pride in showcasing grace, strength, and storytelling through my performances. One of my favorite aspects of performing is the opportunity to engage with my audience, crafting magical and truly unique experiences for all in attendance.
I serve as an instructor of aerial arts, acrobatics, and dance at several dance and performing arts studios throughout the St. Louis area. The most fulfilling aspect of my role is witnessing my students' development and growth, both as artists and individuals. I believe it is essential to foster a positive and encouraging environment that enables students to reach their personal goals. My passion lies in inspiring others through tailored and compassionate instruction.
I graduated with honors from Missouri Baptist University in the fall of 2023, earning a major in Business Marketing with minors in both Business Administration and Dance. I take great pleasure in applying my knowledge and experience to foster connections with others through movement. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to do and share what I love everyday.

"Lilly brings a warm and bright presence to her classroom! She is patient and gentle, but also goal oriented and holds her students to high standards of success. She creates a welcoming atmosphere so that students are able to make mistakes without fear of judgment, which causes her students to grow and strengthen their dance considerably under her instruction! Her knowledge of technique and pedagogy are sound. She executes lessons with precision and intentionality - not letting any moment be wasted. My favorite part about watching Lilly teach, as well as experiencing her in general, is that she looks at every human and sees an artist with something to give. When a teacher makes her students feel competent, valuable, and provides a sense of belonging in an artistic space, the students flourish joyfully!"

“I’m currently in my second semester of dance class with Miss Lilly and I can honestly say that she has helped me make more improvement in this little amount of time than I believe I have ever before. Her emphasis on both technique and motivation has truly pushed me to practice and give my all during class and while practicing at home. There have been times when I have walked in stressed or upset about my day, and after only a few minutes in her presence I feel completely lifted. She’s proven time and time again that this class has more meaning than just an hour of instructional time. In only these few months, I have grown so much as an artist and far more determined as a person.”

"Lilly stands out not just for her exceptional artistic skills, but also for the unparalleled professionalism, work ethic, and positive attitude she brings to every project. Lilly is a hard worker whose dedication to her art is evident in the hours of practice and preparation that she invests into each project. She possesses a rare blend of humility and confidence, always open to feedback and focused on continuous improvement. This relentless pursuit of excellence has not only contributed to the success of our projects but has also inspired a higher standard of work from everyone involved. What truly sets Lilly apart is her attitude. In the high-stress situations that often accompany the performing arts, she remains positive—even when dealing with the unexpected—and supportive, uplifting those around her. Her energy and enthusiasm are infectious, fostering an environment where creativity and collaboration flourish. Lilly is not only a pleasure to work with but also a source of inspiration for peers and project teams alike. She is a true asset to any project or team, and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented, reliable, and professional performing artist. Lilly does not just bring skills to the table; she brings a level of dedication and excellence that is both rare and invaluable."

“I couldn't ask for a more attentive aerial instructor! I am a lifelong dancer but had never tried aerial before. Lilly has helped me build my strength and flexibility for aerial with a solid class structure. She is a great communicator, really breaks things down for you, and can see where students may need additional attention and provides easily understandable, personalized explanations. At this point, I have only taken aerial classes once a week with Lilly for about a year and I have already grown more than I ever thought possible. Her encouragement and enthusiasm for her students, along with her true passion for her craft, is the reason why I keep coming back!”
