Hi, I’m Christie!
I'm so happy you're here! Whether you found me on Instagram, Google, Youtube, or from taking class in person, I want to welcome you! I'm Christie Horan. I create effective, energetic, and easy-to-follow home workouts for the girl on the go.
My goal is to bring together an amazing community of strong, empowered, and confident women who share a love for movement and an active lifestyle.
I grew up loving dance, fitness & movement from a young age. When I was in grade school my family moved around a lot due to my dad being in the Navy. Dance was always my constant and my passion. That passion continues today.
I graduated from the University of Kentucky in 2014 where I earned a bachelors in Business Marketing, and danced on the nationally recognized dance team all four years. I led the team as captain my senior year and competed every year at UDA Nationals in the Hip Hop in Pom categories. I’m so grateful for all the opportunities UKDT brought. I traveled to China with the UKDT in 2013 for a USA Basketball league tour. I earned the Dancer of the Year, Coaches Award, and MVP Awards. I proudly choreographs for the UKDT currently. UKDT’s 2020 and 2019 UDA Game Day Routine earned 5th in the Nation.
My dream after college was to pursue dancing professionally.
I packed my bags and moved to the east coast, determined to make this dream come true. After auditioning for 3 NBA dance teams the summer of 2014, I earned my spot on the Washington Wizards as an NBA dancer. YAY!!
You may or may not know that dancing for the NBA is a part-time job. I started working in Marketing & Sales for 3 years. I'm a mover and a shaker, literally, so in 2017 I took the leap to become a full-time entrepreneur and have never looked back.
Fast forward to today, I spread love for movement training women like you! With years of experience as a certified personal trainer and group fitness instructor in Washington, DC, I'm so grateful to bring you carefully constructed workouts and dance classes online. In addition, I run a choreography company named Powerhouse Danceworks where a team of talented choreographers travel the nation to teach dance teams award-winning choreography.
I'm happy to tell you my dream of dancing professionally for the NBA, has been fulfilling and one of the best experiences. I've danced for 6 years on the Wizards Dancers, leading the team as a captain for 3 of those years. I've traveled to London, Brazil, and China, and have met my best friends on this team. Dance makes up a huge part of who I am today and why I am so passionate about leading others.
My mission is to encourage you to follow your dreams, pursue happiness, and live your best life. I feel so grateful to be doing that myself! I truly feel as if I'm living my purpose. I hope this community can encourage you to do just that!
