What Great Leads Have to Say
"One thing I look for when I'm social dancing is being able to connect myself with the music and with my partner. Katy is one of those followers that I feel I can do that with. She's adaptive, smooth and you can feel the passion once connected with her. On top of it all, she has a great personality! Very welcoming!">
-Joel Massicot, Masacote Dance Company
"What I like about Kathy is her smile and enjoyment when she dances with me and that she just likes to have fun without worrying if she is following right or if people are watching. She just follows what I throw at her, so I don't have to think if she can follow my moves or not. She just loves to have fun in her dancing!
-Ismael Otero, The Million Moves Man

"Kathy is undoubtedly one of the best salsa dancers in the Chicagoland area and beyond. Her uncanny knack for following definitely sets her apart and has impressed some of the greatest salsa dance leads around the world. The scary part is that she is far from her peak and will only get better with time."
