Katie Li is a professional choreographer and educator based in her hometown of Niceville, Florida. She started dancing at Niceville High School at the age of 14, and by her senior year she was named captain. During her time in high school, she trained in a local studio, and choreographed competitive solos for her peers. Shortly after graduation in 2007, she became the assistant coach and choreographer for multiple middle schools and high schools in Okaloosa County.
Katie, on a dance line scholarship, under Joe Taylor at Northwest Florida State College was captain of the dance line and choreographed a piece for the Dance Facets in 2009. Nationally, Katie is an award-winning choreographer and has presented her work throughout Florida, Georgia, Alabama and Louisiana where her choreography receives critical acclaim. Katie created the Verve in 2017 as a pre-professional company designed for dancers ready to bridge into the elite level. In 2019, she turned what was a small company into an emerging dance studio.
The Verve, in its inaugural year has proved her choreography to again, be award winning. Both team ensembles as well as soloists, have competed and performed in many venues in the southeast winning high scores, high point and scholarships to conventions. She has been invited as a master teacher/choreographer to various venues including schools as well as many private studios along the southeast coast.
Katie's class style is an eclectic mix of pure athleticism and sheer technique with an emphasis on dynamics, musicality, emotion and performance. She specializes in contemporary, lyrical, jazz funk and stretch/strength training. @_katie__li

Cydney McGee- Hip Hop, Jazz Funk, Tap, Commercial Jazz, Contemporary, Progressions, On Camera

Cydney is a graduate of the Edge Performing Arts Center Scholarship Program in Los Angeles where she studied daily with today’s world-renowned choreographers and teachers. She has been blessed with many opportunities and one of her greatest passions is being a mentor to young dancers and artists with professional knowledge and advice gathered from her performing and choreographing experiences. She has been seen on stage across the United States and Europe with In This Moment and has been nationally recognized on television shows like "The Ellen Degeneres Show" and FOX Network's "Murder in the First". She has performed in music videos with Harriet, Daya, and Seth Power. Her resume boasts a multitude of works from theaters to cruise ships to film, and she continues to pursue a performing career while teaching across the United States as a guest teacher and judge. Her most recent projects include working with Norwegian Cruise Lines, portraying the role of “Annie” in Chicago, the Musical, dancing as a principal on CLAWS (TNT), performing in the Genesis Halftime Show for Lil’ Wayne, and being a principal dancer for Hardrock Entertainment.
Her classes can be described as motivational, energetic, and fast-paced but still skill level appropriate. She is able to cater to the weakest dancer in the room while still challenging the most advanced. Each dancer deserves their moment to shine, and it is her ultimate goal to help her students find their light. She enjoys teaching technique in all disciplines and with her versatile skill set her choreography is often a fusion of multiple techniques from each style. This is a genuinely unique experience for her students to take a class with many facets of technique, choreography, and style. @tapperina
