"We Strive For Greatness"
Eurhythmics Dance Studio, located on Rosetta Street, Palmdale, just west of John’s Shoe Store, is a gem of a studio. Owned and operated by top dance teacher Ms. Gabriella Szabό. Ms. Gabriella’s career began as a gymnast, and after an injury during competition, she rested for a year. Although she graduated from college and earned a degree as a mathematics and gymnastics teacher at 21, Gabriella preferred the performing arts. She completed a three year course in two years, earning her certification in the beginners, intermediate and advance levels of ballet. She spent two years in the Hungarian Center of the Performing Arts and three years under the tutelage of the great Ballet Master “ Jeszenszky Endre”. Always energetic and seeking a challenge, Gabriella won The National Disco Competition in 1986 and appeared in the “Josephine Baker Story” as a dancer. She has danced all over Hungary and also in the world famous “Moulin Rouge”. Like many dancers, she often went to auditions to see what local and international companies had to offer on the job market. At one of these try-outs Gabriella stumbled upon a chance to dance at the “Le Cabaret Theartre” on Paradise Island. At the time, the famous Hungarian producer of “Luciano Pavarotti”, “Tibor Rudas” was the producer of the show. Of course Gabriella took the part. A few years later her dream of opening a dance studio came to life, and with loads of color and her diverse background, she mad Eurhythmics a dream come true by encompassing her love for kids with dance and music.
