Introducing… Miss Katy!

Hi! My name is Katy Coles, and I’m so excited to be teaching dance! I’ve been dancing since I was four years old, and dance has been such a special part of my life ever since. My favorite styles to dance and teach are jazz and contemporary.

I’ve been teaching for four years, and I absolutely love getting to share my passion for dance with my students. One of my favorite parts of teaching is watching each girl grow in confidence, discover her own style, and truly fall in love with dance. Seeing their excitement and watching them accomplish something they’ve worked hard for is one of the most rewarding parts of being a teacher! 🩰✨

Outside of the studio, I love spending time with my husband, Jordan 🥰. We’ve been married for two years and are high school sweethearts! When I’m not dancing or teaching, I love making memories with him and enjoying time together.

I’m so grateful to be able to do something I’ve loved since I was little and share that love of dance with the next generation of dancers! ✨

This is Katy’s fourth season with Balance. Katy teaches Jazz 2, 3, 4 & 7 💚

Caitlin began dancing at age 2 and has trained extensively in a variety of styles. She spent 10 years training at competitive studios, including The Pointe Academy and Hi-Light Dance Academy, where she studied ballet, jazz, contemporary, hip hop, lyrical, ballroom, and tap. At age 12, Caitlin transitioned to more specialized training in ballet and tap, attending ballet school at Utah Festival Ballet and joining Rhythm Nation Tap Company.

Throughout high school, Caitlin performed several featured soloist roles with Rhythm Nation and Utah Festival Ballet. Since graduating high school, Caitlin has remained a member of Rhythm Nation’s adult company and continues to guest in performances with Utah Festival Ballet.

Over the past year, Caitlin has discovered a deep love for teaching dance. She teaches private lessons and enjoys choreographing original works, with a teaching philosophy centered on building dancers up. Caitlin strives to challenge her students to reach their highest potential while creating an environment that strengthens not only their technique and artistry, but also their confidence. Joy is her #1 priority in the classroom, and she loves sharing her passion for tap, ballet, and choreography with her students. She is excited to create new works with Balance Dance Studio and help her students grow in their own dance endeavors.

Outside of dance, Caitlin is entering her second year at Utah State University Salt Lake, where she is pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Horticulture. Her love of floriculture and involvement in FFA throughout high school inspired her to pursue a career in floral design and agriculture. She is also a licensed florist and owner of CM Floral & Co., where she creates event florals in her spare time.
