Charlie Garcia

Charlie began dancing at the age of 3, starting with hip hop and basic levels of tap and jazz. A decade later, he received his first taste of Latin dancing that turned into what we call, the“Salsa Fever.” Charlie hasn’t stopped dancing Salsa since! Blending his training, Charlie incorporates footwork from different backgrounds, body isolation, high energy, Cuban influences, flavor and technique to create his dynamic “swaggy” style!

Charlie was a choreographer for “Shine: The Movie” and has made appearances on Best Time Ever with Niel Patrick Harris, Good Morning America, Macy’s Fourth of July Fireworks and theThanksgiving Day Parade with his partner, Brianna Rios, while continuing to teach and perform at salsa congresses all around the world!
