View program for DivaDance NYC Each season of DivaDance's Performance Squad, the dancers learn 2-3 routines and then film an on location concept music video for one of the numbers. The dancers work hard to perfect these routines for this end of the year recital, where all of their routines are performed. DivaDance Company was founded in 2015, but our roots go way deeper. With self-love and body confidence at the core of our curriculum — combined with chart-topping pop and hip-hop tunes (singing along encouraged) — we offer all-levels of choreography in a sexy, sweaty, stress-free dance party. The real inspiration for DivaDance started in a small town in Texas, in a bedroom filled with New Kids on the Block posters. Our CEO and Head Diva, Jami Stigliano, began choreographing dance routines for herself and friends way back when Madonna, Mariah, and Paula Abdul were topping the charts. Following a stint as Dance Captain in high school and after graduating from The University of Texas at Austin, Jami took her passion for pop music to NYC, where (by day) she developed her career as a music industry executive at Jive Records, and (by night) she created DivaDance as an alternative to stressful dance studios targeting only those who were Broadway-bound. Since its inception, Jami has amassed a supergroup girl squad – a sisterhood – that slays in NYC. Inspired to bring sexy, stress-free dancing to grown-ups everywhere, Jami decided to turn DivaDance into a national sensation.
