K-MOTION, Kearsley’s Varsity Dance Team improves each year with new techniques and creativity. The girls on the team have been passionate and hard working at every practice leading up to their first performance: the pep assembly.
The team has an unbreakable team bond and thrives on optimism, positivity and dedication. Whether they’re performing on the court at halftime during basketball games or practicing late at night, they put all their effort and pride into representing their school. They start their season by hyping up the Homecoming crowd. Soon, they will take the floor performing an energetic and upbeat halftime show at the home basketball games.
Dance has created a community for many girls who love performing. The girls on the team are supportive and keep the team drama-free.
“I’ve always loved dancing,” Junior, Keira Stimson explained. “I joined my freshman year and I loved being a part of the team so much that I’ve come back both sophomore and junior year. I can’t wait to be a senior next year and get to say that I accomplished dancing all four years of high school.”
Stimson came back year after year because she felt empowered and confident within the team.
K-MOTION has brought together people who wouldn’t otherwise see each other. A tight knit bond has been formed between the girls that transcends even after graduation. Many of the girls are still very close friends with past dancers, such as with Molly O’Bryan, who graduated in 2025.
“The girls and I met through dance and spent so much time together at practices and performances, which turned us into such good friends that I know I will have for life,” O’Bryan said. “Even now that I’m graduated, I always look forward to seeing the girls when I visit home and I am still in contact with them every day! I love this team so much and I am so thankful for all of the relationships that came out of it.”
Being a part of K-MOTION creates a safe and strong environment for the dancers to express themselves and create new friendships that can last a lifetime. No matter what their future brings, they know they can count on each other and will share memories of the fun they had dancing together.
