Sofia Stevenson
Sofia started dancing when she was 5 years old. She started out by taking tap and ballet at a local dance studio, then took hip hop later on. She was on her high schools dance team for 2 years, and she was in a dance club at SUNY Albany throughout her college career. Also during college, Sofia was on a semi-professional dance team for the football team, the Albany Metro Mallers. After being a member of the team for one season, she coached the dance team for the next 2 seasons until she moved from the Saratoga/Albany area to the Rochester area where she started Roc City Dance Council!.

 

 


Juliana Gatto
Juliana has been dancing since the age of 3 at various studios around Rochester, NY - participating in numerous shows and competitions, and choreographing contemporary, jazz, hip hop, and jump & turn technique. In high school, she was a member of the Greece Dance Team, traveling to compete in the National Dance Alliance (NDA) Competition, winning First Place in Senior Jazz, which was televised on FoxSportsNet! She continued her dance experience throughout college - dancing for the SUNY Brockport Dance Team, and the LadySharks dance team for the ABA (Minor League Basketball) team - the Rochester Razorsharks. Juliana recently moved to Florida to pursue her maritime dreams but we are forever grateful to her for her contributions to making RCDC what it is today!

Georgia

Georgia started dancing at the age of eight. Bouncing around from studio to studio (they kept closing!), she ended her senior year at Premier Dance. At Canisius College, Georgia was a part of the Dance Griffs dance team. They preformed at every home basketball game and various events around campus. While on the team, Georgia had the opportunity to choreograph routines and even compete her solos at competitions. She really misses being in the studio and is excited to be a part of Roc City Dance Council! “We are fools whether we dance or not, so we might as well dance”.
