Gorgette Sanchez wore her first tutu at the age of 3 at Bacolod, Philippines. In Bacolod, she began to learn the discipline of ballet. It wasn't until the early 1990s when she transferred to Manila and further honed her dancing skills with the guidance of Agnes Locsin[3] where Cecile Sicangco and Denisa Reyes was also trained alongside her. She had been in Ballet Philippines seven years as a company member, two years as an apprentice, and two years as a scholar.
In 2000, Georgette Sanchez won the silver medal in the 9th Paris International Dance Competition,[4] for her performances in Agnes Locsin's September and Alden Lugnasin's Aku. This distinction helped her gain an invitation from Nicolas Musin to join the abcdancecompany in St. Pölten, Austria.
Sanchez returned in 2008 to teach at Ballet Philippines’ summer dance workshop[5] and also during the same season, taught with her sister Gianne at the Garcia-Sanchez School of Dance in Bacolod city.[6] After the end of that season she left again for Germany for another take on the European dance scene.
