Board of Directors

Ronda Runnels founded Human | Artist | Dancer (HAD) as a way to pay homage to all those who graciously helped her throughout her lifelong dance career. She also wanted to help serve and support local dancers through education, training, and scholarships. While dancers may not need wings to fly, HAD seeks to give them everything they need to thrive.

Ronda is also the Owner and Director of Trilogy Dance Center, Move & Groove Pre-School Dance Program, and Insight Dance Ensemble. In 2018, Ronda bought Trilogy Dance Center (TDC) to take it to a new level of dance in the country. 

Ronda’s greatest pleasures are her three children, an amazing husband, and spending time with family.

Kim Feltner is the Co-Owner of Trilogy Hill Country and serves as Trilogy Dance Center North, Trilogy Hill Country, and Insight Dance Ensemble’s Financial Director/Advisor. 

Kim discovered her love for dance in high school but has fully embraced the importance of this discipline as her daughter has grown up in the studio from the age of two. She has a passion for working with dancers, families, and staff to create a positive environment for everyone.

Outside of work, Kim enjoys spending time with her husband, son (a Texas A&M engineering grad), and daughter, who recently started high school and has danced with Ronda Runnels for 12 years.
