Meredith Harper Houston

Merry was born in Philly but grew up in Cape May, NJ where the small town racism would lead her to attending the prestigious George School back in the Philly area. At George School she learned the life skill of self-perseverance which she would take with her to Los Angeles where she built her burlesque performance company empire working with artists like Panic! At the Disco, SpikeTV. residencies in Reno, Laughlin, Las Vegas and the world famous Viper Room in Los Angeles. From the principles of social justice and community development she also learned at George School, she now runs The Swan Within – a program helping incarcerated and foster care youth - victims of abuse and exploitation - to gain ownership over their bodies. An abuse survivor herself, Merry utilizes the therapeutic elements of dance to help students heal, reclaim their power, increase their self-esteem, and improve their life choices thru the principles of ballet and dance.
