Terry Ciotti Gallo - Founder
USDF Lifetime Achievement Award
Terry has a broad and colorful history in sports, dance, and music. Starting as a theatrical choreographer, her works were seen in various media. However with a background as a competitive gymnast, she also acted as a dance instructor, choreographer, coach, and judge for international-caliber gymnastics. Terry coupled the sports world with her dance and music knowledge to help a variety of athletes in the total development of their freestyle performances. This led to the establishment of Klassic Kur in 1989. Since then, her freestyles have appeared in seven Olympics, World Equestrian Games, and hold two World Cup titles.
