Gabrielle Ka’iulani Stamm entered the world of dance at age 3, training in jazz, tap, ballet, modern, hip-hop and contemporary. In May 2013, she graduated from Dean College with a BA degree in Dance as the first to complete the program in three years. While at Dean College, Gabrielle spent her summers at the Alvin Ailey and Joffrey Ballet’s summer programs, and gained many choreographic and performance opportunities, including being selected to perform at the American College Dance Festival in 2013. Stamm also had the opportunity to run the school’s dance ensemble from which she learned how to effectively manage and run a team. Since relocating to NYC, Gabrielle has been eager to contribute to the dance world and is looking forward to gaining as much experience and knowledge in both dance and business as possible. From business to management; she has a variety of non-dance work experience and she hopes to one day combine her business and dance skills into one career. Stamm has danced professionally with several companies in and around New York City and New England. She is thrilled to have co-founded AGile Dance Collective, and is looking forward to watching the company grow.
