About Kate
As a seasoned professional dancer and instructor, you can count on me to be on time, give my best, and follow up with feedback (I also welcome yours!). Read my bio to learn more about my journey:
Kate grew up in Richmond, Virginia where she danced both as a student and as a trainee with Richmond Ballet. She trained around the country at numerous intensive programs such as Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet, Boston Ballet, and Complexions Contemporary Ballet. Upon graduating from Appomattox Regional Governor’s School for the Arts, she attended Butler University on both dance and academic scholarships. While dancing with Butler Ballet, she performed in Poland, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic. While at Butler, she took kinesiology and anatomy and was certified in group fitness instruction. After fulfilling her degree in three years, she graduated magna cum laude in May of 2015 with a BS in Dance-Arts Administration and high departmental honors. Kate immediately joined Verb "Ohio Contemporary Ballet" in 2015 and has performed leading roles with them all over the world, including Taiwan and Cuba. She has continuously studied yoga, Pilates, and strength training throughout her career and infuses those practices into her teaching approach. She is a well-respected teacher in the Cleveland area and teaches master classes and private lessons both in-person and online.
I can’t wait to add you to the dozens of satisfied students/clients I have worked with over the years!

My goal is to help you fall in love with movement by helping you to get to know your body better. This can be through dance lessons (I offer ballet, pointe, and variation/choreography coaching) or through generalized fitness classes (strength, conditioning, and stretch). Every individual’s body is beautifully different, so it’s vital to get acquainted with your personal nuances to better display your strengths and improve any weaknesses. I focus heavily on alignment and muscle identification.
Dance students of mine have been cast in productions at the Kennedy Center, danced with Joffrey in Chicago, and have gone on to receive spots at various prestigious conservatories. All have had an increased love for the art form.
Non-dancer clients have reported a reduction in chronic pain, increased mobility/balance, and an overall better understanding of how they move through the world on a daily basis. Some have even reported growing a half inch! Each exercise program is designed with the individuals’ goals in mind and can be modified to meet their specific needs (i.e. from a chair, incorporating physical therapy exercises, etc).

Kate is an amazing teacher! Working with her has improved my technique so much. She is also such a kind and supportive person. Whether you are looking to work on your dance technique or just do conditioning, I would highly recommend taking classes with Kate!
Kate is a joyous, enthusiastic, and personable teacher. Her cueing is precise and imaginative ( "Elf ears!") Kate is alert to everything her students are doing, even on a Zoom screen, and she has a knack for knowing when you need feedback, as well as how to communicate with you supportively. I appreciate Kate's respectful use of time and her overall professionalism. Working with her has been a highlight of my life. Extremely gifted instructor.
She’s the best dance teacher I’ve ever had!
I have worked with Kate for over three years, three times a week, using Zoom. Although Kate is a professional dancer and athlete, she is never intimidating. She always starts where you are, whether beginner or advanced, and gently moves you to the next level with upbeat and continuing encouragement.
Despite the virtual approach, she doesn’t miss much! When needed, Kate can pivot instantly to change exercises to best suit your immediate needs. If you have an injury, she works with great adaptability.
Workouts with Kate have greatly improved my appearance, balance, strength, body tone, flexibility and energy. I feel fortunate to have found her.See more recommendations
