Gabriela Garcia (she/her)
Gabriela is a proud East Bay native who has been dancing in one form or another since she was three years old. Whether it’s ballet, salsa, lyrical or jazz, dance has always been a major part of her life. In college, she was a member of the Cal Band and the Cal Dance Team, attending the university at a time when the Bears’ football and basketball teams were among the elite programs in the nation. Her fondest college memories involve the good times spent spreading school spirit at sporting events throughout the conference—and, indeed, across the country in post-season and bowl games. She still cheers on the Cal football team and performs at halftime once a year at alumni events.
Gabriela’s love for movement and dance led her to Hipline in 2012, where she started as a client, later became a member of the crew, and is now thrilled to take on the role of instructor. Hipline has not only deepened her connection to dance but it has also helped her rediscover the power of community. As an instructor, her goal is to guide you through movement that will make you feel stronger, more confident and empowered.
