About NAGATA DANCE

She had grown up in the San Francisco public school system, traveled the country training to dance professionally, and studied dance teaching methods with some of the most prestigious American dance institutions—National Dance Institute, Dance Theatre of Harlem, Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater: Nagata was an experienced teacher who cared about her students and had an uncanny instinct for inspiring young children to excel.

Through word-of-mouth, Nagata’s unique talent and passion for teaching gained her recognition as one of the greatest in- and after-school curriculum providers in New York City. Arthur Mitchel, founder of Dance Theatre of Harlem, called her, “The best teacher to come through this school since its opening 30 years ago.” In 2002, Nagata founded Nagata Dance, a program that enriches the lives of children and adults in San Francisco today.
