About Us
Katie Hyde started Dance In Motion over 19 years ago with the mission to offer dance classes to as many dancers as possible, by way of bringing class to the dancers instead of making them travel to her.
This business model proved to be a life saver for many parents around the central Virginia area, and Katie and her classes are now featured in over 15 different schools and day care programs in the Greater Richmond & Northern Virginia areas.
Hi my name is Katie Hyde, and am the owner of Dance in Motion, a thriving dance studio that I have led for over 19 years with passion, creativity, and heart. As a dedicated dance educator and entrepreneur, I have spent nearly two decades inspiring young dancers and building a community centered around movement, confidence, and self-expression.
Outside the studio, I am the proud mom to four adventurous boys who keep life full of energy and excitement. My oldest, 27, is getting married next year; my 21-year-old is a college junior and a talented baseball player at EMU; my 17-year-old is enjoying life as a junior at Cosby High School; and my youngest, a rising 4th grader, is affectionately known as my little Bryson DeChambeau, always swinging big and dreaming bigger.
I love traveling with family and making memories wherever we go—whether on the field, on stage, or out exploring the world together. My life is a beautiful mix of rhythm, adventure, and love.
Hello! My name is Kinsley Stevenson. I am a 2022 graduate from James Madison University with a Major in Dance and my VA teaching licensure in Pre-K - 12th grade Dance instruction. I have been teaching since I was 16, starting as a dance counselor at St. Catherine’s private school. I proceeded to teach there every summer as I gained more and more knowledge in the education field. In college, as I was working towards my degree, I had the opportunity to become an associate director and teach the underclassman in the senior year of my B.A. program. I have taught ages 2-22 and even adult classes and cannot wait to gain more experience this year through Dance in Motion. I have been full time with Dance in Motion for 2+ years and look forward to many more!
