Head Instructor

Robyn Tribuzi Head Shot
"My goal is to create a well-rounded dancer. All students in my dance classes
will learn beginning through advanced levels of technique in Jazz (all
forms), Tap, and Lyrical dance and will be expected to demonstrate their
technique through rehearsal and performance. Through participation in dance,
all students will more fully understand and appreciate the art of dance."

Robyn has taught dance at the high school and college level for the past 25 years. She has received the Mason-McDuffie "Teacher of the Year" award for teaching dance in public high school. As a performer, she has worked with Evan Pappas, Barbra Streisand, and Gregory Hines and as a certified Jazzercise instructor, she taught and performed at International Jazzercise Conventions. She is currently the Director of Dance for the award winning San Mateo High School Performing Arts Department. She teaches and creates curriculum for five dance classes (beginning through advanced), as well as choreographing SMHS’s two yearly school musicals.

Along with teaching at San Mateo High School, Robyn is also on the faculty of Notre Dame de Namur University’s Music Theatre Conservatory. She teaches the Jazz/Theatre Dance portion of the program. For 8 seasons she worked as Assistant Choreographer to Mr. Berle Davis at Broadway by the Bay and has been a part of over 20 productions. In 2006 she won a Bay Area Theatre Critic's Award for her choreography in "Miss Saigon". Since then, Robyn has choreographed many Broadway by the Bay productions such as "Thoroughly Modern Millie", "Crazy for You", and "The Full Monty".
