Gaylene has earned numerous choreography awards over the years.  She has Industrial credits including principal dancer/actor in the tv pilot “A Screwball Homicide” and principal dancer in the feature film “Life or something like it”.  She has appeared in many commercials including most recently Dairy Queen, Macy’s and Ziploc.  

Gaylene continues to share her fun, positive enthusiasm with students & in her spare time can be found chasing after her three adorable, rascally kids.
