Kat AKA “the technician” for her diligent and technical approach to her dance. From an early age Kat has engaged in different physical activities and so has an outstanding knowledge and understanding of the human body. From as early as 4 years old she was put into acro and artist gymnastics. Her dance foundations were laid in classical ballet, modern dance and tap dancing. Kat competed locally in Cape Town for many years as a child and teenager and was awarded with many honour/distinction titles, dancing in different groups, as a soloist and across different dance forms. After moving to the UK, Kat found dance as an adult. This time, it was Latin dance. As she always does, Kat pushed hard, gave all her energy and ended up being part of a semi-pro performance team – where she met her current dance partner Edward Torres. She has studied under some of the best in the world, including Marco Ferrigno, Bersy Cortez and Lazaro Lopez and is always in pursuit of development, and progression within herself and her style with new knowledge, influence and inspiration from others. She has competed, both as a soloist and with her dance partner in a number of prestigious competitions and is now a titled champion. She is also qualified as a L3 mat pilates instructor with specialisations in groups for pre-/post natal, older adults, those with non-specific back pain as well NHS exercise referral and nutrition.
