Midnite Martini & Martini Entertainment
What Makes a Midnite Martini?
Midnite Martini has been performing and entertaining for over 12 years. Born in Seoul, South Korea she was adopted to a loving family in Littleton, Colorado where she grew up. Starting out as a figure skater, Midnite realized that martinis are better served off ice and moved to dry land. There she trained in musical theatre, ballet, jazz, modern, tap, hip hop, ballroom, African, flamenco, and samba! Throughout her dance career growing up she has been a featured performer in Magic Music Days at Disneyland Park, Ca, National Thespian Conference, Denver, CO, Summerset Festival, Littleton, Co, and Borrows Acting Workshop, New York City, NY.
In 2003 Midnite went to UNC to study musical theatre dance. Turned off by the cut throat environment and negative body images that came with this typical dance and theatre world, Midnite changed her studies to psychology at CU Boulder and looked for another creative outlet.

In 2005, Midnite took to the air and became a proud member of Frequent Flyers Productions (FFP), an aerial dance company based out of Boulder, CO. She continued her training in aerial and circus arts with Fred Deb, Nimble Arts, and Aircat Aerial Arts. With FFP she has had the honor of performing at The Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas, The Eccles Center in Park City, and the Denver Center for the Performing Arts in Denver.
In 2006 Midnite began her journey into the lost art of burlesque. In this new performance world where every woman was welcome and creativity was never limited Midnite found her home. Combining her dance and aerial training with burlesque, Midnite developed her own form of aerial/acro burlesque! She's teased and titillated performing at events such as The Burlesque Hall of Fame 2009 and 2010 Las Vegas, Tiki Oasis 2007 San Diego, and Tease-O-Rama 2008 San Francisco.
