Inspired by the #brunomarsdancechallenge, we decided to dip our toes into the video side of dance and create our own tap version! Plus Bruno Mars is performing in Atlanta in a couple weeks…maybe he needs some backup dancers? 😉 We had so much fun creating this video, and I learned a LOT about this process along the way!! Thank you so much to my dancers and their parents for donating their time and talents to this project! Grace Ann, thank you for being by my side every step of the way and for your insane video and editing skills! Avery Mason, you are the coolest…when is my personal styling appointment? And of course, none of this would’ve been possible without Becca, Dani, and Rhythm Dance Center who brought us all together! by @ktcarroll13

💜 NEW YORK UNIVERSITY 🤍
💙🩶🦅 EMORY UNIVERSITY 🦅💛🤍

Katie Carroll (@ktcarroll13) wears many hats at the @rhythmdancecenter in Marietta, Georgia, just up Interstate 75 from downtown Atlanta!

Katie is the Fusion Director, Edge Co-Director, Director of all things Tap and Music, and Performing Company Logistics Coordinator there!

Katie, who is originally from Arlington, Texas, is a 2006 graduate of @nyuniversity! She also earned a PhD in Genetics and Molecular Biology at @emoryuniversity in Atlanta. So you can actually call her Dr. Katie Carroll!

She started teaching at Rhythm one day a week while earning her PhD at Emory. This is her 20th year teaching at Rhythm!

Dr. Katie started dancing at age 3. By her own admission, she was a complete spaz but was pretty good at tap, as evidenced by her 4th Place finish at the World Tap Dance Championships.

Dr. Carroll toured as an assistant with Tremaine Dance Conventions for 6 years.

When she’s not dancing or teaching, Dr. Carroll is tending to her organic garden and her SIXTEEN chickens! 🐓 I’m willing to bet she gets a workout having to keep them in line! She loves all things nature, plants, animals, etc.

And obviously, Dr. Katie loves tap dance and is very much an accomplished artist and scholar! 💜🤍💙🩶💛🤍🦅
