Sophie Moyer is a dancer, teacher, and choreographer with over 10 years of professional experience. As the granddaughter of Joan Moyer and daughter of Kitty Moyer, she is proud to be the 3rd generation Moyer to carry on the family tradition. Sophie grew up dancing at The Moyer Institute of Dance, and also studied at Central Pennsylvania Youth Ballet and Pennsylvania Regional Ballet. Sophie went on to receive a BA in Dance and Sociology from The George Washington University. During her time at GWU, Sophie was a board member, choreographer, and lead dancer with the university’s student dance company. She graduated with honors in dance and nominations for both choreography and performance excellence awards. Immediately upon graduation, Sophie became an Assistant Manager and youth & adult faculty member at Joy Of Motion Dance Center, located in DC and MD. Sophie relocated to NYC in 2016, where she currently resides.

In addition to her work with the Moyer Institute of Dance, Sophie teaches and choreographs at studios across NYC, NJ, and CT. She is currently the Assistant Company Director at Performing Arts Workshop NJ, and is on the teaching faculty of Center Stage Dance Studio in CT. Sophie continues her own training by regularly attending classes, workshops, and intensives, and has most recently completed intensives with Pushing Progress Contemporary Dance. 

Sophie’s classes focus on technique, strength, musicality, storytelling, self-reflection, and the development of a personal and unique voice to share through movement. Her work stands out at competitions and has won countless awards for choreographic excellence over the years. She is thankful to her beautiful team dancers for their openness, dedication, and continued trust in her.
