Kimberly Davagian was born in Massachusetts and trained at the Boston Ballet before earning her BFA at Fordham University/Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre. During her time in New York, she performed with various modern dance companies, including Heidi Latsky Dance and was blessed to tour nationally and internationally throughout her professional performance career. Upon relocating to Colorado, Kim was privileged to be an adjunct professor of dance fundamentals at University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, adjunct professor of ballet technique at Pikes Peak State College, yoga instructor at CorePower as well as a performer, choreographer, teacher and board member at Ormao Dance Company. Upon completing her MFA in 2019 following a guest artist teaching residency and thesis performance in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, Kimberly began teaching at the University of California,

Irvine as a guest artist and visiting professor as well as Idyllwild Arts Academy and then moved into the role of chair and full time faculty of the dance department at the Oakland School for the Arts in Oakland, CA. She now enjoys traveling and teaching around the country, passing on the dynamic and impactful influence of the Horton technique on dancers who come from all training styles and backgrounds. Kim also greatly enjoys working with various post-op clients, incorporating yin yoga into their recovery programs. Kim is extremely passionate about her role as master teacher and loves to motivate, uplift and inspire students on a daily basis to move into the best version of themselves, inside and outside of the studio. Her high energy classes and invigorating teaching style aim to encourage dancers to work to their fullest potential, reaching, stretching, darting and lunging past their perceived limitations and beyond.
