About Us
Basement Born—Spotlight Ready
Brooklyn Basement Dance Company was founded by Leah Ramos and David Gamboa — two artists with sharp instincts, serious execution, and a shared belief that dance spaces should reflect both excellence and heart.
We’re building a studio where talent is taken seriously, and work ethic is the core value. A place that balances discipline and creative freedom. Where mirrors reflect more than form — they reflect effort, growth, and grit.
Brooklyn Basement is a competitive dance school, committed to preparing dancers to take the stage at local and national competitions with skill, confidence, and artistry.
At Brooklyn Basement, it’s not about hype. It’s about showing up, pushing through, and building something real — one class, one dancer, one moment at a time.
This is the space we always looked for — now we’re building it from the ground up.
With community. With vision. With everything we’ve got.
Welcome to the Basement.
