Delainey Bailey: Dancers Making Moves

Dancers Making Moves host Carly Vanderheyden chats with Delainey Bailey about her transition from studying dance at Lindenwood University to now being in her first season with MADCO as a professional dancer and teacher in St. Louis, MO.

Delainey Bailey is an apprentice dancer with the Modern American Dance Company (MADCO) in St. Louis. In her first year with the company, Delainey has performed three world premieres by choreographers Noelle Kayser, Lily Sheppard, and Annie Mitchell in HOPE ALIVE: Moving Stories. Delainey was honored to play the role of “Clara” in MADCO’s Madcracker Gala in December 2024. Beyond MADCO, Delainey is a teacher and choreographer for the competitive team at On Your Toes Dance Studio in Mehlville, MO. She has taught and choreographed for many studios in Illinois and Missouri during college and high school. In May 2024, Delainey graduated from Lindenwood University with a Bachelors of Fine Arts degree with a specialization in Contemporary and a minor in Dance Studio Management. Some of Delainey’s notable achievements from Lindenwood include earning “Top Creative Project” for her original choreography at the Student Academic Showcase, being awarded “The Dance Award” from her professors at Honors Convocation, being selected to perform in the Gala showcase at the American College Dance Association in Ann Arbor, MI for two pieces, and most recently receiving the “Best Dance for Camera” award from Hellbender Student Film Festival for her dance film, “Red Robin.” Delainey’s professional development includes programs with GUS Giordano Dance School, Water Street Dance Milwaukee, and Saint Louis Dance Theatre. Additional performance experiences include Lindenwood’s fall, winter, and spring dance concerts, Detroit Dance City Festival, Water Street Dance Festival, American College Dance Association, Seen: STL by Resilience Dance Company, and Busch Stadium with Lindenwood Lion Line Dance Team. Delainey is excited to collaborate with St. Louis dancers in Dancers Making Moves!
