Meet our team

We’re happy to introduce the team of talented dancers and teachers who make up our studio.

GABRIELA Owner & Founder

Gabriela Madeira, an Argentinian-Portuguese dancer, teacher, and performer based in Berlin, founded Boogaloo Dance Studio in 2012, realizing her long-held dream of opening her own studio.

With over 15 years of experience as a professional dancer and teacher, Gabriela holds a bachelor's degree in contemporary dance and choreographic composition from the National University of Arts in Buenos Aires.

After completing her degree, she moved to Europe to continue her training, education, and career. Gabriela has danced with numerous companies and collaborated with various artists and dance schools.

Six years ago, she discovered the Magnifícale Pole Dance world and trained to become a professional teacher. Her passion is to blend all she has learned throughout her dance career to create a unique style of dancing.

Hannah has been dancing since she was 8 years old and began her professional dance education in 2020. She first tried pole dancing in 2015 and instantly fell in love with it.

She enjoys combining dance with pole dance and sharing this passion with her students. What she loves most about teaching is motivating students to overcome their fears and helping them reach their goals. Her favorite part of teaching is seeing the students' happiness when they realize what they are capable of.
