About Gabriella
I have been studying dance since I was 3 years old, salsa came into my life through my stepfather who is Colombian so I was lucky enough to grow up around the amazing music and culture. After focusing on ballet and contemporary dance as well as Ballroom and Latin for a few years (achieving my Silver Level medals from the ISTD) I found myself drawn to salsa where I started my professional journey through training, performing and teaching at London's biggest Latin dance school Caramelo Latin Dance. I have since performed and taught all over London and the UK as well as international events, I have partnered different male salsa artists such as Richard Marcel (Strictly Come Dancing), Miguel (Mambonito Dance Company), Juan Soto (Latino Flava Dance) and Gilberto Prado Mendez (Pexava Dance). I currently work as a solo artist as well as in an all-female professional team Mileydis led by Andrea Stewart.

I think foundations are super important, I find many students who have been dancing for years come to me with no understanding of body movement or technique. I like to introduce these things from the early stages which gives you the best chance to become an advanced dancer. Salsa music is so rich and I try to help the student connect with it to help with their musicality, as well as learning so much we will have a lot of fun with my silly jokes and metaphors to help you understand movements in a 'normal' way :-) *Rates shown are for private 1-1 lessons from my location only - classes at a separate location, couples/ groups or events will be priced differently, please just ask!

Perfect! I've been taking classes with Gabriella for almost a year. She's not only a very good dancer technically but also an excellent teacher! I love that she provides precise feedback and tailors the classes to my specific needs & goals. She's been truly instrumental to my dancing journey. Always patient when I'm a bit slow, and the lessons strike a perfect balance – challenging yet so much fun! Strongly recommend her.

Gabriella has been my tutor for a few months.
Gabriella is knowledgeable and experienced, this shows in her training. She has been very patient with me and great at verbally explaining moves/ routines and physically demonstrating those same routines with dance practice and back-leading.
Classes follow a clear structure and by the end of the class I’ve always learnt a new move and short routine.
Training with Gabriella has taught me a lot and increased my confidence with dancing. I would highly recommend!Gabriella is a highly qualified teacher and salsa coach.
Aside from being an amazing dancer, she is a very nice person who will help you to reach your dance goals!
Her teaching style is very flexible and you'll get the opportunity to do some footwork but also some partner work during the classes.
She is very methodical and she will give you the keys to success at dancing salsa.
I'm not the easiest student to deal with (very busy and starting salsa from scratch) and she has always been super supportive and positive! She has always provided me with some personalized "tips" to improve my steps and my confidence! If you think that "only the others" can be good at dancing salsa but not you then Gabriella is going to prove you that you're wrong!
Finally, she has always been very flexible regarding the scheduling and the location of the classes and it has been highly appreciated.
I can warmly recommend Gabriella as a dance coach! :-)

PS: 1,2,3...5,6,7Very good teacher, flexiable teaching attitude, excellent communication and sound advise
Highly recommended teacher. Classes with her have been so worthwhile! Gabriella is an amazing dancer. She is born to dance!
Gabriella is the best teacher who guided me to the Latin dance world. I am totally falling in love with Salsa because of her classes. I really enjoy dancing with her, even in lockdown. Her passion and love for dance inspired me a lot during this challenging time.
Her classes are really interesting! She will explain every new step in a fun way. You will hear the stories and history behind the dance.
She is more than a teacher to me. She is one of my kind and helpful friend. As a beginner, I always have a lot of questions when practicing. She always explained to me with patience.
Also, she will help you make the most of your energy and help you find your potential to dance!
Gabriella is not just a beautiful dancer!
Above all, she is a methodical and inspiring teacher who can train absolutely anybody!!!
She is able to convey knowledge naturally in the most subtle way I have ever seen. Able to break down and explain the dancing movements to accustom each and every learner. This is probably due to her classical and modern dancing background. Something that it is obvious not only during her classes with her students, but also in her unique, charmingly captivating dancing performances.
I met Gabriella when I was taking footwork mambo(salsa) classes in London.
In salsa/mambo, as followers we don't have many "liberties" on the dancefloor and when we are given some, we have to be ready to "shine". I didn't know what that meant until I saw Gabriella's impromptu ladies styling.
I was mesmerized by her gracious movement on the dancefloor, it was as if she was playing the music with her dancing lightning up the whole room.
P.S: "She makes you feel at home with her warm and supportive personality, and you don't even notice you managed to actually do all those difficult movements correct by the end of the class.."
Having been Gabriella’s student for over 3 years, I can say that her training is not only inspiring but it gave me the right tools which have equipped me for my own professional journey in becoming an instructor. This is someone who has bucket loads of passion for what she does and will go above and beyond to help you draw out your talent and technique! Bonus factors include her infectious personality- she is so fun to be around that you won’t want to miss class!
Gabriella has been teaching me salsa dancing for a few years now and my dancing has completely transformed with her teaching. She has a level of expertise in dancing which means she teaches the proper technique behind the dance steps and the right drills to develop body isolations. She is comfortable teaching complete beginners and will adapt her teaching to make complex dance techniques accessible, but also uses her professional dancing skills to keep challenging you to help you reach any level you want.
She's super reliable, has an infectious enthusiasm for dance, and is a great laugh too. Highly recommended.View more recommendations
