Amelia Kinkade was born in Ft. Worth, Texas on New Year’s Eve, 1963. She is of Cherokee and Irish descent, but she is a card-carrying Choctaw Indian, and the latest research indicates she may also have descended from a wild clan of Portuguese pirates. Her first passion was classical piano, but she shifted her attention to ballet when she started training to be a professional dancer at the age of 11. She was not born clairvoyant with animals. Although she adored animals her entire life, she didn’t develop her gift until her mid-twenties. Because she learned this amazing ability from scratch, she has been able to create a system of teaching telepathic communication to her students all over the world.
HOW IT BEGAN
Only a few months after discovering her telepathic ability in an animal communication workshop, Amelia went to a Hollywood party, given by a television director. Amelia sneaked away from the party (which was a séance with the not-yet-famous James Van Praagh) to have a chat with the man’s two gorgeous Golden Retrievers and test out her newfound abilities; Amelia kept the conversation to herself, but news travels fast in Tinsel Town. A few weeks later came an urgent call from the director. One of the dogs, had scratched most of the skin off the left side of her chin. Their vet could find no cause for the obsessive scratching.
Amelia successfully diagnosed the problem when she told the director that the irritating factors were two-fold: She “saw” new cream-colored wall-to-wall carpeting in the man’s home that was causing an allergic reaction in the dog and she “felt” that the dog-owner’s roommate had just had a painful dental surgery on the same side of his mouth where the dog was scratching. When both situations were confirmed, Amelia was stunned. The precious dog was experiencing both physical and emotionally sympathetic causes for her painful condition. The implications were staggering. Animals can TALK!!!
A week later came another call. The director’s roommate had just taken a job on The Mo Show, Mo Gaffney’s talk show, and would Amelia appear as a celebrity guest? That began a string of media appearances that prepared her for her new career as an international speaker. After the publication of Straight From the Horse’s Mouth in 2001, Amelia scheduled her first world tour and has lectured in at least 30 cities (about 12 countries) annually.
When Amelia is not writing and teaching workshops in animal communication, she relishes her time behind the brush–the watercolor brush. She wrote and illustrated her first children’s novel, The Winged One (Amazon) with pen and ink drawings and watercolor paintings.
Amelia’s whimsical artwork has become available to the public! She studied life drawing, figure construction, anatomy, perspective drawing,and quick sketch at the American Animation Academy under the watchful eye of the legendary Karl Gnass, one of the world’s most revered art teachers. (Order The Winged One on Amazon and meet King Jinx, the big bad king of the Electrolynx.)
When she isn’t drawing, she’s dancing.
Before discovering her psychic ability, Amelia graduated from the world-renowned Interlochen Arts Academy in Interlochen, Michigan with a major in modern dance. Her training included years of study with the New Orleans Ballet, Martha Graham training with Ko Yukihiro, and a scholarship to Gus Giordano’s in Chicago.
In Los Angeles, she enjoyed a notorious career as a professional jazz dancer and choreographer. As a lead dancer, she performed with Smoky Robinson, Ray Charles, The Four Tops, and a multitude of Motown Stars in the TV series, The Motown Review. She was a featured dancer in the films, Breakin’ 2, Girls Just Want to Have Fun, Body Rock, and Fast Forward, among others. Amelia toured with Donna Summer and starred in a multitude of rock videos including The Stray Cats, Cher, The Scorpions, Yarborough and Peoples, and Sheena Easton. Amelia also starred in a series of unforgettable horror movies that have garnered such a cult following, she signs autographs at Sci-fi movie conventions where fans greet her with tattoos of her on their bodies.
Amelia has taught and trained professional dancers in Los Angeles. Her new passion is Salsa dancing. She can be caught kicking up her glittery heels in Salsa clubs from Manhattan to Dublin, Ireland.
Amelia attests that all left-brain artistic and athletic activities aid psychic communication, by patterning brain waves to observe and log visual and tactile information in the absence of language. She believes that both drawing and dancing are powerful forms of skill-building nonverbal communication that help develop and fine-tune intuition.
“God can only do for us what God does through us. People ask me if I pray every day. No, I pray every moment. My every breath is a prayer.”
And pray she should. For fun, she gets her kicks through death-defying extreme sports. In 2011, she did the world’s highest bungee jump in Nysna George, S. Africa.
In 2012, she learned to white water kayak and she white water rafting the Zambezi (with 24 class 3-5 rapids.) In between her quality time spent playing with Great White sharks, Siberian tiger cubs and Black Mamba, she learned to paraglide so that she could release rescued birds from a paraglider. In 2012, Amelia went paragliding in the Alps and divebombed herds of Alpine goats who were very surprised to see her.
This new brand of wild-hearted rebel is always looking for something exciting to rock her world…and new ways for her to rock your world.
Even this little reptile in Milan Italy was drawn toward the Light!
