Welcome back to another season of LNXdance with your Co-Hosts, Marcus & Mari!
Join us as we kick off this season with our first guest, Brianna Rios. We are so thrilled to share Bri's story with you... enjoy!
Based out of NYC with a Bachelor’s Degree in Education from St. Francis College, and dancing since the age of 4, Brianna has continued to follow her passion through performing, teaching, and competing internationally. At 18 years old, she became the youngest professional World Champion in the Salsa On2 division and now, is a 10x World Champion who’s had the opportunity to judge international competitions and even represent the USA in the 2017 World Games held in Poland.
Aside from the stage, Brianna can be found on the big screen as a featured dancer in movies such as Shine and Warner Bros.’ In The Heights.
With an eye for detail and a sense of responsibility to share her talents, Brianna is known for her thorough explanations and teaching style. Her goal is to make a long-lasting impact on her students’ dancing. She encourages them to ask for knowledge, not steps. It’s common for dancers to forget a choreography, but it’s their skills that will last forever.
