Gina’s martial arts (tae-kwon-do) background is a major influence on her crisp yet fluid pole dance style. Gina is constantly studying a multitude of dance and circus disciplines to enrich her pole practice. She approaches performance with a background in visual/multimedia art (BA in Fine Arts from the University of Pennsylvania) and a true passion for storytelling. She is always looking for opportunities to feature and incorporate pole dance in new theatrical contexts.
