ABOUT TRICIA

Tricia is a multi-hyphenate creative, dancer, and community builder who has spent two decades living, creating, and growing roots in San Francisco. Rooted in hip hop, waacking, and dance culture, she has performed, toured, and used movement as a tool for healing, self-authority, and collective liberation. Her belief is that lasting change starts from the inside out: that people won’t always turn inward willingly, but they will when it’s wrapped in joy, celebration, and community. From jazz and basements to Family Constellation gatherings in her own parlor, Tricia has spent her life building containers for the values she wants alive in the world.

VISION

People dancing together: practicing joy, courage, connection and self-expression through the shared language of music and street dance.

EVERY BODY MOVES

Co-Creating Civic Ritual through Street Dance

Tricia's activation is rooted in the belief that our best future draws from pre-conquest wisdom, where movement, ritual, and gathering are central to how we connect, heal, and grow. Street dance, born from marginalized communities as a physical response to exclusion, transforms rhythm and raw presence into personal and shared power. Through a grounded, intentional experience — weaving lineage, somatic practices, and collective celebration — attendees are invited to co-create culture rather than simply consume it, feeling firsthand what it means to be part of something larger than themselves. By widening the circle to include non-dancers, Tricia offers everyone direct access to the connection and medicine that dance has always carried.
