Katia Pryce, Founder of DanceBody - From the Mid-West to the Big Apple

Kenny's next guest is his friend, client and fellow fitness professional, Katia Pryce.  After dancing professionally for years, Katia combined her passion for dance and fitness into a career when she founded DanceBody in 2013.  The boutique fitness brand started out as private sessions and quickly turned into sold-out classes across four studio locations and a virtual platform.  In this episode, Katia shares her transformational journey from the mid-west to the Big Apple to pursue her dreams.  She and Kenny talk about what it takes to build a brand from the ground up especially in the competitive NYC fitness landscape.  From navigating hurdles to establishing a cult-like following, Katia is proof that if you can make it here, you can make it anywhere.Follow Kenny Santucci - @kennysantucciFollow Strong New York - @strongnewyorkFollow Katia Pryce - @katia_dancebodyFollow DanceBody - @dancebody
