Hey HEYYY!

Giselle Gutierrez is from San Antonio, TX and has grown up in the dance world since she was five years old. Her dance career began at a local studio named Studio 10 run by Pat Holbrook, the mother of Curtis Holbrook.  She mainly fell in love with Broadway, however as the years went by, she discovered a TV show called ABDC and fell in love with urban dance. She stopped dancing in her middle school years to pursue cheerleading, but once she started high school, she joined her school’s dance team, The Antonian Silver Dancers. Her coach, Drea Pena-Kocian, with the help of the assistant coach, Diandra Buckley, played a huge role in Giselle’s passion to continue fighting for her dreams.

​

While on her Dance Team, Giselle would dance contemporary, ballet, jazz, broadway, hip hop, and many other styles of dance. She was a solo finalist in her junior year at Showtime Nationals. She also had many leadership roles in her JV Team her senior year. When she moved to Los Angeles to study at AMDA-LA, she started noticing how all parts of the industry were intriguing and focused on being a versatile dancer. During the pandemic, she took a long break back in her hometown and was able to return in the fall of 2020. When returning she joined a mentorship program named MAD Program LA focusing on foundational hip hop styles, run by EJ Hoffman.

​

Through this program, she has seen exponential growth. Her goal is to explore all aspects of the dance industry from Broadway to film to music videos. She has been a part of a Purpose Media Production visual named “So Pretty,” A short film named “Can We Even Feel at all?” created by Hannah Gallagher, and her first live show with MAD Program LA. She also enjoys seeing the dance world behind the camera and uses filmmaking to inspire her craft and merge her two favorite career paths. Giselle is excited to continue growing and evolving in the dance industry.
