Daniela Garcia is a Latina educator, makeup artist, artivist, and performer who spotlights afro-latino traditions and experiences through authentic dance practice, intergenerational community engagement and performance. Garcia’s influence stemmed from current social oppression in the Latinx community in the Bay Area and focuses on showcasing future youth leaders. Dance is much more than just movement, it's about telling the story of oppressed voices through art. She has trained with Rising Rhythm, Hijos Del Maíz, San Francisco Ballet, University of San Francisco, Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory, and Loco Bloco.
