PATRIK GALLINEAUX
     BIO

Patrik Gallineaux is a New York native who marked his first stage performance
exactly thirty years ago.  He began his training at his family’s dance studio
Dance Arts, still open to this day, and continued his studies through college
level in NY and London, England with a BFA in Musical Theatre Dance.

Patrik has shimmied in shows on cruise ships and theme parks, high-kicked in
regional musical theatre productions and tours, and taught ballroom, latin, jazz,
and tap across the country.  Patrik has worked as a dancer for MTV
productions and his choreography credits include an original stage production
for three time Oscar winning composer Ray Evans.

Patrik’s favorite stage experiences to date include the role of Riff in Garland
Summer Musical’s Equity production of “West Side Story”, as well as a stint
as dance captain for the Texas regional premiere of “Victor, Victoria”.  He has
most recently been seen  in the Ray of Light Theatre’s production of
“Seussical, The Musical” in SF and can be seen in the nationwide release of
the film “24 Hours on Craigslist.”

Patrik is thrilled to now call San Francisco home and can be found teaching
and performing throughout the Bay Area, frequently at the Metronome Dance
Center here in SF.   Patrik teaches American style Ballroom and
Rhythm/Swing, socially and for show/competition.  Look for Patrik
performing/competing with dance partner Angie Major!
