Dani Gutierrez is a local gal, born and raised in the heart of Albuquerque’s North Valley. With hometown roots, and green chile pulsing through her veins, its no wonder she became swept away by American Tribal Style Belly Dance. The passion and play that take shape in the movements of ATS have captured Dani’s heart and become the rhythm of her soul. “I’ve been dancing since I was three and no other dance style or technique has made me want to get off my butt and shake my shimmy!” Classically trained in ballet for 13 years, ATS offers Dani the freedom and expression in dance that allow her creativity and expression to flourish and take shape.
