Performing Art – New York - NYC
Tanya Antonio has extensive classical training in Ballet, Jazz and Contemporary styles. For the last four years she has trained almost exclusively in Hip Hop in the dance crew circuit of New York. With experience in numerous shows and music videos she offers an intimate knowledge of artistic production. As a direct effect of her broad training her choreography does not seek loyalty to a particular genre, but to be a reflection of the complex relationship between art, performance and real life. As a person and dancer Ms. Antonio believes that people are galaxies of beautiful stories, with layers and layers of untapped potential. As a teacher and choreographer, she works to send her dancers on an internal journey to bring out parts of them they have either forgotten or never knew existed. With a light spirit, passion for expression and a hearty sense of humor she moves through life on a mission to change the world through dance.
