Courtney Galiano and Shane Sparks Judge Knicks City Dancers Tryouts

UPDATE: Check out pictures and video from the Knicks City Dancers tryouts.

Courtney Galiano and Shane Sparks
The Knicks City Dancers are officially holding open auditions for those wanting to dance for the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden. Courtney Galiano, former Knicks City Dancer and of course a “So You Think You Can Dance” contestant, will be sitting next to Shane Sparks at the auditions. They will be watching the talent that will fight for a spot on the Knicks City Dancers squad.

Auditions for Sunday, June 28th @ Madison Square Garden! Get more information on the auditions at the Knicks City Dancers website.

It makes a lot of sense for Courtney Galiano to be there as a judge for the Knicks City Dancers. She was one before and is a great dancer. I’m not exactly sure why they have Shane Sparks as a judge. Not that I blame Shane. Sounds like a great job to me.

Courtney Galiano and the Knicks City Dancers

I always love when I find some interesting updates about some of my past favorites from So You Think You Can Dance. Courtney Galiano has to have been one of the most gracious dancers to have ever graced the So You Think You Can Dance stage. There was something wonderful about her innocence.

Today, one of Pure So You Think You Can Dance readers pointed me to a post on The Monitor (a blog about Madison Square Garden) that had some great videos about Courtney Galiano.

Check out this video of Courtney talking about being a Knicks City Dancer alumni, New York, Madison Square Garden and So You Think You Can Dance. It also has pictures of Courtney reunited with Gev for a performance at Madison Square Garden.

I have to admit that I feel like a bit sad that I didn’t know that Courtney was previously a Knicks City Dancer. I should have known that, but I didn’t. Oh well, better late than never.

Here’s another nice interview of Courtney Galiano talking about her experience on So You Think You Can Dance.

Anyone else have information on what Courtney Galiano’s working on since being on the show? I’d love to hear an update. Feel free to leave a comment or send me the info on the contact Pure So You Think You Can Dance page.
