Anne-Marie Gerard Galler

 

Anne-Marie Gerard Galler has been dancing since the age of three, professional by the age of 16, and a proud member of Actors Equity Association and SAG for 25 years. The youngest person ever hired (at the age of 17) for Norwegian Caribbean Cruise Lines, Ms. Gerard Galler went on to perform in the last National Tour of West Side Story that Jerome Robbins directed in the lead dancer role of Graziella, before moving on to the original Broadway casts of Me and My Girl and Prince of Central Park. 

 

She has also performed in numerous National Tours, regional productions and industrial shows for major clients such as Chrysler, IBM, and Subaru, as well as for a former President at The White House.

She prides herself on making Dance a 'fun, integral part of life for students, whether they be '2 or 102.' She is also the creative force behind Triple Threat Teen Theater Workshop, a comprehensive program for grades 1-5 and 6-12 devoted to intensive instruction in the arts of dance, voice, acting and auditioning for Musical Theater.

 

 

With extensive experience in Fitness-based and Aerobic instruction as well, be it Theater Dance, Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Modern, Yoga-Movement, Folk, Lyrical or Street Jazz- Ms. Gerard Galler has taught dance to literally hundreds of young people (and adults!) for the past 13 years throughout Westchester County NY. She resides in Goldens Bridge, NY with her husband Jamie and son, Tristan, her favorite production.
