“Always look forward to every class… helped me in my dance journey”

“Katie is awesome. Dance is something I have had low confidence in. Katie helped me bring out the life in songs that I danced to. She taught me how to break down choreography and find confidence in my abilities. She also challenged me to push myself in my dance routines. I would always look forward to every class and I’m positive it helped me in my dance journey.”

“Helped grow my confidence and improve my performance… favorite shows”

“Katie was able to explain direction and choreography in a way that made so much sense and was always fun to perform. She also helped grow my confidence so much and helped me to improve my performance when I wasn't feeling good about it. I truly feel like I learned so much from Katie and grew as a performer, and the shows she directed were by far some of my favorite shows I've ever been in!
