About
I create customized dance lessons for students of all levels so they can walk away feeling comfortable and confident on the dance floor. I also make house calls for students who do not have a studio close to them or are nervous about dancing in front of others. My rates include travel, studio rental, choreography, and music editing. I love the flexibility of having an open schedule. A lot of dance studios don't open until late in the afternoon, but I can offer morning and early afternoon lessons at my students' homes, offices, and fitness centers any time.

Kat was amazing! She was very patient. My husband and I used her for our first dance for our wedding and the lessons were filled with so much fun and laughter. We had so much fun every single lesson! Thank you Kat 💗💜

Kat was our wedding hero! We knew that our first dance would need to be choreographed – otherwise we and our guests would be in for an awkward few minutes of us stepping on and bumping into each other! But as the weeks went on, other details and items moved to the top of our to-do list and with about a week and a half to go, we still hadn’t choreographed our first dance. To say we were stressed would be an understatement. Enter Kat, who not only choreographed a beautiful dance for us but cut and mixed our first song as well – all in about a week’s time. Kat really went above and beyond for us, including by coming to our building for lessons, sending us videos of her husband and her doing the choreography so we could study and practice between sessions, and bringing us some sweet treats to celebrate our final lesson. The result was better than we could have imagined! The dance was simple but entertaining and we had so much fun with it. If you need a dance teacher for a wedding or otherwise, look no further than Kat!

My husband and I are so glad we hired Kat to help us choreograph a surprise first dance routine for our wedding. Neither of us have any dance experience to speak of, and she was very patient with us while we stumbled through what I'm sure are very basic steps. She was able to gauge our abilities and our learning strengths very well, and above all, she was really honest about what we were doing well and what we needed to fix. Our guests were SO surprised to see what we had created with Kat - and we have so much fun with the process, from our first lesson to the final "performance." Would highly recommend Kat to anyone, even those with limited to no experience!

Kat has shown she is adaptive and able to adjust to our requests and desires from day 1. We consistently find ourselves laughing at our trials and tribulations under her tutelage. She has managed in 2 lessons to take 2 amateurs from nothing to having a whole wedding dance routine. We can't wait to continue working with her!

Kat was an awesome dance instructor and choreographer for our first dance as husband and wife. When i first made contact with her, whe was quick to respond to my many questions. We reached out to her with less than a month until our wedding, and she was able to schedule us very quickly, within a few days of confirming we would work with her. I appreciated her responsiveness, rates, and availability, so I chose her over four others I had been in touch with on Thumbtack. We met with her three times leading up to the wedding for our two minute dance. During the first two lessons, she showed us the choreography, and in the final lesson, we perfected our moves. She made a custom two minute mp3 of our song for us, and also took video of us dancing the choreography, so we would have that to practice on our own. She was also flexible and understanding when we had to reschedule one of our sessions. We both felt really confident when we danced on our wedding day, and I think our guests really liked it. My husbamd, who previously had no dance experience, got a lot of compliments from his guy friends, so he was very happy. You won't regret working with Kat. Thanks again!
