“Kat Studios is by far my daughters favourite program we have ever enrolled in! Kat is absolutely amazing at finding what is special about each and every kid, and giving them the tools to shine! Her program is fun, super valuable for growing life skills (like public speaking), and creating a space for kids to feel comfortable and learn what theater is all about! My daughter’s singing has also come along so far in the short time she has been doing vocal lessons in this program! 10🌟’s!!”
Laurie Adams
“Fantastic experience. Our daughter loves the Triple Threat program and Kat has a fantastic rapport with the kids. Our daughter wishes every class lasted longer. Kat mixes up the routine and our daughter enjoys playing the improv games and skill building as well as working on the production. Highly recommend.”
