Katy Pyle

While training in North Carolina, Pyle was pressured to change their major from classical ballet to contemporary dance due to their body type and movement style.

After graduating from college, they moved to New York City and danced for companies and in individual works for Ivy Baldwin, Faye Driscoll, John Jasperse, Xavier Le Roy, Karinne Keithley, Jennifer Monson, Anna Sperber, Katie Workum, and Young Jean Lee.

[3] Pyle began choreographing in collaborations with Eleanor Hullihan, Rebecca Brooks, and Jules Skloot during this time, including the works Salute to Ex-Best Friends, Galapagos, The Lady Centaur Show, PS 112, THE WAY: You Make Me Feel, and COVERS.

[6][7][8] Pyle also choreographed Slavic Goddesses on six soloists with Ballez for a performance series at the Kitchen as a collaboration with Paulina Olowska.

In January 2018, Pyle created a pas de deux for PILLOWTALK with Kyoung H. Park at The Tank, which travelled to Chicago in August 2018.
