April 2006 marked the Just For Kix 25th anniversary of providing exciting dancing and performing opportunities for young people. Just For Kix started in April, 1981 as a "part-time" venture out of Cindy and Steve Clough's home. Cindy had been coaching the Brainerd High School dance team, from Brainerd, Minnesota, since 1976 and thought about starting a non-competitive junior team. Within a year Just for Kix, a program of precision dance team instruction, began to grow in popularity across Minnesota.
