Gabrielle Crane Rentz
Artistic Director - Choreographer - Owner
Gabbi has been a teacher and choreographer in the Tampa Bay area since 2018. She spent her youth traveling to dance intensives across the country with a focus in Tap but also training in Ballet, Contemporary, Jazz & Modern. As an adult, Gabbi has devoted time to training in Ballroom along with learning other percussive instruments to aid in her Music Theory studies. During her performance career she had the opportunity to dance in professional shows taking place in Arkansas, California, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Texas & Vermont. Gabbi is still perusing performance opportunities for herself to help her dancers step into the professional world post high school.
In the past 2 years Gabbi has shared her love of teaching in over 15 states while continuing to teach locally. Her goal is to help students not only find their love for dance but find their “why”. She knows that loving this art form is easy but understanding what a dancer loves about it and why they should keep doing it is the most rewarding thing she can do.
