Hey Cowboys Nation!
I am beyond grateful and excited to return for my second year as a Dallas Cowboys Rhythm and Blue dancer. I am so thankful and know this season will be one to remember! I can't wait to support America's team with all of you!
I was born and raised in The Colony, Texas, and graduated from Lewisville High School in 2022. I was a competitive cheerleader for 12 years until I started dancing in middle school. I was a member of The Officials, a competitive hip-hop team throughout middle school and high school, and I am now an assistant director! I am in my junior year at the University of North Texas, majoring in Criminal Justice, focusing on Pre-Law. Outside of Dallas Cowboys Rhythm and Blue, I coach and teach kids!
I am blessed to be able to represent America's Team for a second year! I am excited to dance alongside my talented teammates for this new season! Thank you to all my friends and family who have encouraged and supported me throughout this journey.
Go Cowboys,
-Skylar
Number of years on the team: This is my second season with the Dallas Cowboys Rhythm and Blue!

Nicknames: Sky or Sky Sky
Hometown: I am from The Colony, Texas!
I dance because: I dance because it's God's gift to me! Dancing allows me to express my emotions and myself. It's therapy, and it's also just fun! Dancing is physically and mentally demanding, but it's beyond rewarding!
What I like to do most besides dance: teaching and coaching my students! I teach kids from 2 to 17, and it is one of the greatest gifts. The most rewarding part of teaching is watching your students learn and grow throughout the years. I also love hanging out with friends and family.
I've always wanted to: be a runway model, but I don't think I'm a gracious walker in heels!
Advice to Youngsters: To young people, always be yourself and stay true to your morals. Don't be afraid to be different and have fun in anything and everything you do.
My biggest role model: my mom. She is the hardest-working woman I know and does everything under the sun for me. She inspires me more than she knows, and without her support and love, I don't know where I would be.
What I enjoy most about being a DCRB Dancer: the relationships I get to create! Creating relationships with the dancers, drummers, and people behind the scenes is beyond enjoyable. We meet many fans during appearances and gamedays, and it's a great pleasure to get to know Cowboys Nation!
