Professional Dancer: Katharine Nace

Introduction: Katharine Nace was trained at Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet, after which she joined Richmond Ballet as a trainee and corps performer. While in Richmond, she attended and graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University with a degree in Dance and Choreography. She has also danced professionally with Charlottesville Ballet, Rapture Dance Company, Theatre West Virginia, and most recently danced as a company member for First State Ballet Theatre in Wilmington, Delaware. She is currently performing as a freelance artist, including outreach for inner-city children in events such as Washington DC Holiday for Hope, and autistic friendly performances. When not dancing, she teaches dance in all genres and levels including university caliber. Her choreography has been presented at school productions, competitions, and college concert venues. My passion for dance is something I hope to instill in my students and audience members. I enjoy sharing a discipline with others that improves overall health, strength, mood, and mental agility.
